Description
Casita Brewing Company is owned and operated by Ryan and Mahalia Witter-Merithew. Ryan is a seasoned brewer, having worked as a professional brewer in Denmark, England, and of course, the United States over the last thirteen years. Mahalia is the heart of the business and the president of the company.

Casita started as a contract brewery at Hill Farmstead Brewery in Greensboro Vermont in 2015. In 2017, we moved this business to our home state of North Carolina, where we produced our beer at Duck-Rabbit Brewery in Farmville. In 2020, we are set to open our very own brewery and taproom in Mahalia's hometown of Wilson, NC. We will be open to the public by August 30th.

Over the years we have brewed over 50 different beers under the Casita name. Ryan is excited to bring this creativity to our new taproom, where we will be brewing some old favorites as well as some new beers we haven’t even dreamed of yet.

The logo for our brand is a letter 'C' in the shape of a little house. The 'C' of course stands for Casita, but it is our hope this 'C' will not only represent our brand, but a lot of our other favorite words that start with 'C', like craftsmanship, creativity, compassion, and community. These are the key principles of our business.

Can @ Broadway Dive Bar (June 2023). Pours extremely hazy dull yellow like grapefruit juice, very small foamy off-white head, faint grapefruit aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter pineapple-citrus taste, faint apricot flavor, somewhat thick body, long citrusy finish with enduring flavors. Flavorful.

Opaque black sample at Churchkey, ring of beige head, light legs. Spicy nose, lots happening. Malt and caramel and dark brown sugar. Raisins and cinnamon. Flavor packs more. More malt, more dried fruit, more cinnamon and a big wave of peppery chili. Finish is long, peppery and boozy. Pretty nice though. 8 4 8 5 15

Can shared at Craft Beer Junction - cheers to Dan! Pours oily black-brown with a bubbly, beige head. Medium to big sweet flavour with a luxurious dark malt character, some chocolate notes, toasted wood, earth, a little ashy roast, raisins. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Lightly warming finish, not too sticky, some burnt sugars, roast, fudge. Very tasty.
