Merriweather Post Pavilion is one of the world's most beautiful and storied amphitheatres – nestled in 40 acres of forest, smack between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. If the backstage walls could talk, they’d echo Roger Daltrey and Robert Plant trading some wicked stories about when the Who and Led Zeppelin played here in the ‘70s. Now Animal Collective has ensured its legendary status, by naming its genius CD “Merriweather Post Pavilion” in homage to the band’s favorite venue. A concert season at Merriweather Post Pavilion is like putting your iPod on shuffle: the calendar features the best in rock, country, rhythm and blues, pop, jazz, hip hop, alternative, electronica and classical.

Three brewhouses on site. A small 2-barrel pilot brewery, a 10 hectoliter brewhouse built by DME Brewing Solutions and a custom-designed 100 hectoliter brewhouse built by GEA. All three systems will be set up to brew and ferment various styles. There will also be large and small-scale packaging lines capable of filling various formats. The 10 BBL system will initially brew small-batch and one-off brews for the taproom onsite. Our brewing teams will have a remit to explore and experiment with what Guinness beers can be. The 100 HL system will initially brew Guinness Blonde for national distribution. In time, our aim is to brew new beers for the US market for either regional or national release on this system. It is one sixth the size of our world-class Brewhouse 4 at St James's Gate, so it will enable us to brew at a smaller scale.
