About Escape Brewing Company
Founders John and Matt both started brewing beer in their garages as a way to “Escape” from their corporate sales jobs. (Yes, that is how we came up with the name, Escape Brewing Company). It didn’t take long for us to figure out that our true passion was making beer. What started off as a hobby in our garages quickly turned to a full-on obsession of making beer…a lot of it. Well, the amount of beer that we could legally make for our own consumption.

We both decided to “Escape” corporate America, quit our day jobs, live the American Dream, and open a brewery. You miss every shot you don’t take so why not open a brewery, said someone famous…I think.

Escape Brewing Company was born out of our passion for great beer, creativity, and for the love of our family.  We are a nano-brewery located in Trinity, FL brewing on a 3-barrel system. We will have an onsite tasting room and limited distribution.

Big Storm Brewing Company announces upcoming Ohio distribution

Florida-based Big Storm Brewing Company is coming to the Buckeye State.  Big Storm announced today that Ohio Eagle Distributing will begin distributing its core beers around the Cincinnati area starting this month.

“Ohio’s craft beer scene is impressive and stronger than ever.  We’re excited to be a part of this energy and to have the opportunity to share our unique and dynamic beers with consumers in the Cincinnati region,” said Big Storm co-owner L.J. Govoni.

Ohio Eagle Distributing is distributing two of Big Storm’s most popular brews, Tropic Pressure Florida Ale (Photo Attached) and Key Lime Shandy.  They will also be distributing Big Storm’s Bromosa Brut IPA and its award-winning Oktoberfest Märzen Lager.

Selling about 3.5 million cases of beer annually, Ohio Eagle has a strong reach in the southwest Ohio region, serving nine counties including Adams, Brown, Butler, Clermont, Clinton, Hamilton, Highland, Preble, Warren.

“We are beyond thrilled to work with Ohio Eagle. Their commitment to relationship building and execution is second to none,” Govoni added.

And, the company already has strong ties to the Sunshine State, as a local subsidiary of Florida-based Gold Coast Eagle Distributing.  Before joining the Florida team, Ohio Eagle operated for 81 years as the family-owned Dickerson Distributing.  To this day, the company prides itself on being involved in the local community, while supporting innovative craft beer brands like Big Storm.
