The Alter Brewing vision began way back in 1992 when the first batch of home brew was made in a ceramic coated brew pot on the stove top of a Chicago north side city apartment. Fast forward to 2013 and Downers Grove, IL. Three men with a passion for beer came together and began laying the foundations for a new brewery. Over the course of two years they labored with research and experimentation, seeking out the best equipment, suppliers and people to begin realizing their vision. Then in 2015, building upon a passionate love for the beer industry and its people, as well as formal brewing education at the Siebel Institute, BJCP Certification, Cicerone CBS and on the job training at breweries across the country, Alter Brewing Company was born.
