In the months and even years leading up to the opening of Zed’s Beer, I’ve been fortunate to have the support of friends and family from near and far. It’s been great to hear their thoughts, let them taste test beers, and as you saw in my last blog, many have even lent a

In my former life at Campbell, my proudest moment was receiving a company-wide award for creating a best-in-class sustainable advertising production process. So there is no doubt that I would continue to focus on sustainability when I opened my own business. I sum it up this way – sustainable practices are not only the

I’m very pleased to announce that Zed’s Beer will have a tent during Marlton Day tomorrow, June 10th! Come on out to Main Street and visit more than 60 local businesses and services—including Zed’s! There will be 5 food trucks, a motorcycle show and stuff for the kiddies to do. And for the adults, Lori

So I’ve spent much of the past week or so with the designers that I’ve chosen to help with the ascetic feel of the brewery. And we’ve landed in a really good place for the brewing area itself: the stainless fermenters will be front and center; the brewing equipment just behind; all stainless will be

The dominoes I had set up while looking for the right space for Zed’s are starting to be knocked down. My TTB application is in, as is my application for the NJ ABC and the order for the Brewhouse and Cellar stainless. I’ve even submitted my first zoning approval for a temporary sign with evesham
