Elder Piper Beer + Cider Celebrates Grand Opening in Petoskey, Michigan
PETOSKEY, MI — Elder Piper Beer + Cider kicked off their grand opening weekend on Friday, June 7 with a ribbon cutting ceremony by the Petoskey Area Chamber of Commerce. After a decade working for some of the biggest breweries in the country, co-founders Trace and Eeva Redmond returned home to Michigan to open a small brewery and cidery of their own.
“This grand opening is a huge milestone in our careers and a mark of our commitment to building a future with my hometown,” said Eeva Redmond, Elder Piper’s Co-Founder. “It’s the culmination of a decade of recipe development, three years of planning, one year of construction, and a ton of care and support from our community.”
Trace Redmond, Elder Piper’s Co-founder and Brewer said, “We make beers and ciders that are rooted in the context and the place where they are made.” He continued, “Over my brewing career, I have had the opportunity to brew a lot of different beers in a lot of different places. What unites all those beers is a fascination with fermentation. I’m excited to dig deeper and share my explorations through the beers and ciders of Elder Piper.”
The grand opening weekend marks the start of Elder Piper’s first summer season and summer hours. For more information about this event or to learn about Elder Piper Beer + Cider, visit elderpiperbeer.com.
