Description
Cousins Justin and Matt launched Sacred Vice Brewing in 2018 inspired by shared family memories and the dream to become part of Philadelphia’s long and epic brewing history. They’ve been extremely blessed to join what’s one of the best beer neighborhoods in all of the US — the scene that’s developing on the north side of Philadelphia from Callowhill to Northern Liberties to Fishtown through Kensington. At heart, they’ve always been happy to make beer that they like to drink and share them with friends and family.

In 2021, Andrew “Ruby” Rubenstein joined them as partner and head brewer. Ruby has nearly two decades of award-winning brewing experience, most recently with 2SP Brewing in Delco and Iron Hill. Together, they plan on making even more beer they like to drink and share.

8 ounce draft served in a mug @ the West Berk Location. Aroma is honey like malt with a soft mineral note. Flavor follows with a very crisp refreshing texture. The mineral with the hops give it a nice fresh character. I likey!

8 oz draft at the West Brek location.. Aroma is marijuana. Flavor is dirty bong water. The hop is a close cousin of the marijuana plant soooo… if you like soft bong water….

8 oz draft at West Berk Location. Flavor is very interesting. Earthy, with an oat like base. And a hint of licorice. Very mild bitterness. I like the profile of hops.

8 oz draft at the new location. Wow, a crystal clear pale, don’t see that often enough! Flavor of soft citrus, and a light herb hint. Zero bitterness.
