Scotch Irish Brewing sold to Heritage Brewing

The following is an announcement from Perry Mason of Scotch Irish Brewing:

Scotch Irish Brewing has entered into an agreement to sell its brands and equity to Heritage Brewing of Carleton Place.

The complexities and stresses, physical, emotional and financial, became too much for me to handle on my own. I decided to sell to Heritage so that I could continue to be part of the business, without the financial burden. I will be involved with the sales and marketing, as well as overseeing Scotch Irish Ales production. I will also have a role in product development for future brands.

This decision was made with great deliberation and hand wringing. I hope that those of you who have supported my efforts in the past will continue to follow the progress of Scotch Irish and Heritage in the future.

A big thanks to the folks at Church-Key Brewing who bailed me out 4 years ago and who steadfastly produced my ales. I wish John and his crew much deserved success.

So, look for more seasonals and bottle offerings at the LCBO from Scotch Irish. We will be doing some 650ml single units for the LCBO, probably Corporal Punishment and maybe Session Ale.

Cheers!
Perry
