Spring House Brewing Company

What Spring House Brewing Company does

Spring House Brewing Company is a privately held craft brewery headquartered in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Founded in 2010 (originally in a barn in Conestoga, PA before relocating to Lancaster City), the company operates three distinct taproom venues in Lancaster County: The Brewery at 209 Hazel Street (a historic warehouse combining working brewery, wood-fired pizza kitchen known as The Butchery, Hell's Attic arcade, and Dalton's Doggie Deck dog-friendly patio); The Coffin Bar at 30 West Lemon Street (a coffin-shaped themed bar in Downtown Lancaster with seasonal comfort food and craft cocktails); and The Tavern at 8-10 East Main Street in historic Strasburg. The core beer portfolio comprises four year-rounders — Commander Salamander Sour Ale (cucumber, kumquat, lime), Daily Planet Hazy IPA, Couch Fire American Lager, and Seven Gates Pale Ale — augmented by seasonal, limited specialty, and collaboration releases.

The company's signature initiative is the Art+Music Series, launched in 2020, which pairs 12 monthly beer releases each year with a local visual artist and a local musician, with featured talent selected in partnership with the nonprofit Music For Everyone. Revenue is generated through three primary streams: direct taproom sales (beer by the pint, flight, growler, and crowler, plus food and entertainment), packaged beer distribution through thirteen regional wholesale distributors plus self-distribution across seven states (Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, and West Virginia), and private event venue rentals at The Brewery. Online ordering runs through Toasttab across all taproom locations.

Spring House Brewing has no disclosed parent company, institutional investor, or external funding rounds. Customer segments include craft beer enthusiasts, the local arts and music community, and private event hosts. The company maintains partnerships with more than ten Lancaster-area nonprofit organizations and operates active Facebook and Instagram accounts alongside a presence on Untappd.
