Naturally, he wants to figure out how it’s made, and that is where the Zony Mash Beer Project story begins. Fast forward years later, head brewer Mitch Grittman has moved to New Orleans to pursue a career in food science, developing flavor profiles for the Smoothie King franchise by day, while becoming an award-winning home-brewer by night. His path eventually crossed with native Philadelphia restauranteur and developer, Adam Ritter, and conversations about a shared love of beer lead to late nights crafting brews on a small set-up in a warehouse owned by Ritter on Broad Street. The brew sessions inspired thoughts of opening a full-scale brewery, and when an irresistible opportunity dropped in their lap, they grabbed it. The duo moved a few doors down from the warehouse into the historic Gem Theater - one of only two remaining African American movie theaters still standing in the city – taking over a recently shuttered brewery and began transforming the space, and the local beer scene.

On tap at Zony Mash, pours a hazy dark amber orange with a small white head. Aroma is extremely tart, with acidic black currant and some bugginess. Flavour is an acid bomb, with tart currants, acid galore and a touch of bugs. The acidity destroys this. Not brewed well.

On tap at Zony Mash, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is gentle, with soft crackery malt, straw and very low-level hops. Flavour is much the same, with crunchy straw and crisp crackery malt. Very deficient on the hops. It's alright.

Feb 2024 review: On tap at Zony Mash, pours a cloudy bright orange with a small white head. Aroma is bizarre, bringing out carrot juice, mango and tangerine, with plenty of sweetness - ugh. Flavour is ridiculous, with lots of carrot, mango and orange in a totally disharmonious way. The sweetness doesn't really help, as there's no depth to this. Bad idea and it didn't work. 5 3 5 2 11 Dec 2022 review: On tap at The Chimes - East, pours an opaque bright orange with almost no head. Aroma brings out carrots, lactose and subdued tropical fruits. Flavour is tart and tropical, with tropical fruits and lactose upfront, with only a touch of the carrot — which I'm not sure I'd recognize other than the vague herbal / vegetal character. Fun stuff but far from a fine beer. 6 3 7 3 13

On tap at Emporium NOLA. Pours a hazy light gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has dank mango and sweet citrus with some sweet grass underlying. Flavor has light mango and tangerine with sweet grass and grains backing.
