Funk Factory branches out

Funk Factory Geuzeria is branching out from its nationally recognized lambic-inspired and mixed-culture sour beers. It recently received approval for a change in its federal alcohol license that will allow it to produce cider, mead and wine. “We do a lot of fruit fermentations with our sour beers. This is something new, exciting and in a different realm of the natural fermentation world,” says Kyle Metz, Funk Factory’s head of operations. Funk Factory isn’t leaving its sours behind, says Metz. “This is just a way to create new flavors.”...
