Author Information

Celeste Beatty, entrepreneur and beer pioneer, founded the Harlem Brewing Company in 2000. She is the first black woman to own a brewery in the United States. She started brewing beer in small batches in her studio apartment right across from Marcus Garvey Park in NYC in the '90s. The early beers were made with a home-brew kit, a gift that sat in the closet for several weeks (that might explain why the first brewed beers weren't such a hit). She kept on brewing, never giving up on trying to perfect her recipes. Today, Harlem Brewing Company creates artistic and intuitive beers inspired by the timeless rich history of Harlem and ancient traditions, whether experimenting with new styles and ingredients on their Pico Brew Zymatic or brewing up beers with natural yeasts during their Harlem Brewdio sessions. Harlem Brewing continues to celebrate this heritage in all their beers. Each one highlights amazing stories, whether their flagship Sugar Hill Golden Ale, Renaissance Wit, or 125th Street IPA.
