However, the mission goes as deep as the roots we have in this community, and it drives us to stay involved and committed each day. In addition to serving craft brewed beers, we are committed to serving our community. Our guests and team are focused on volunteer opportunities that contribute to the improvement of our town and help to maintain the small community feel that is core to Middletown&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-community-investment\"><strong>Community Investment<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our name reflects our commitment to community involvement and giving back. We are a small, family owned, independent brewery and we support local businesses first. We exclusively brew with grain malted in Southern Delaware and, in some cases, grown in the state we call home. Reinvestment in our community through local patronage and non-profit involvement strengthens everyone and builds resilient neighbors. We brew small batch ales with the goal of leaving our mark on the Delaware brewing scene. Our recipes and beer names are developed through conversations with our customers and brewers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-laser-focused-on-local\"><strong>Laser Focused on Local<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our mission (Serve Local Brew) is rooted in our community connection. Our uniqueness is our local focus. We are not and never will be interested in mass production outside of our core servicing area. Our visibility in the community is essential. We are neighbors who serve the community through the use of meeting and collaboration space for local organizations and non-profits. Independence means self-sustaining in a way that supports those around us. Nearly every dollar spent in our taphouse remains in our community. Every connection with our customers helps to drive awareness of local volunteer needs and, in turn, improves the wellbeing of our community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CSS Part Start From Here-->\n\t<style>\n\t\t.all-images {\n\t\t\tpadding-top: 10px !important;\n\t\t\tpadding-bottom: 15px !important;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t#image_gallery_112963 .thumbnail {\n\t\t\twidth: 100% !important;\n\t\t\theight: auto !important;\n\t\t\tborder-radius: 0px;\n\t\t\t\/*background: transparent url('https:\/\/www.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/new-image-gallery\/include\/assets\/img\/loading.gif') center no-repeat !important;*\/\n\t\t\tmargin-bottom: 20px !important;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t.item-title {\n\t\t\tbackground-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);\n\t\t\tbottom: 45px;\n\t\t\tcolor: #FFFFFF;\n\t\t\tdisplay: block;\n\t\t\tfont-weight: 300;\n\t\t\tleft: 2rem;\n\t\t\tpadding: 8px;\n\t\t\tposition: absolute;\n\t\t\tright: 2rem;\n\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\ttext-transform: capitalize;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id=\"image_gallery_112963\" class=\"row all-images-112963\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"single-image-112963 col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143109\/volunteer-brewing-co-exterior-with-embracing-couple.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"lightbox-112963\" data-gallery=\"gallery-112963\" data-title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumbnail hvr-glow\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143109\/volunteer-brewing-co-exterior-with-embracing-couple.jpg\" alt=\"volunteer brewing co exterior with couple embracing\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"single-image-112963 col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143004\/brewery-patrons-doing-volunteer-work.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"lightbox-112963\" data-gallery=\"gallery-112963\" data-title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumbnail hvr-glow\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143004\/brewery-patrons-doing-volunteer-work.jpg\" alt=\"brewery patrons doing and celebrating volunteer work\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"single-image-112963 col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412142933\/volunteers-collecting-leaves.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"lightbox-112963\" data-gallery=\"gallery-112963\" data-title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumbnail hvr-glow\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412142933\/volunteers-collecting-leaves.jpg\" alt=\"volunteers-collecting-leaves\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"single-image-112963 col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143050\/brewery-exterior-and-serve-signage.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"lightbox-112963\" data-gallery=\"gallery-112963\" data-title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumbnail hvr-glow\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143050\/brewery-exterior-and-serve-signage.jpg\" alt=\"brewery exterior and serve signage\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"single-image-112963 col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143059\/group-of-brewery-volunteers.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"lightbox-112963\" data-gallery=\"gallery-112963\" data-title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"thumbnail hvr-glow\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.craftbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20230412143059\/group-of-brewery-volunteers.jpg\" alt=\"group of brewery volunteers\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<script>\njQuery(document).ready(function () {\n\t\/\/ Method 1 -
