Hoppy’s first visit over Labor Day weekend was at Wedgewood Brewing in Middlebury. They opened in May 2016, moved to a larger facility in June 2021, and in May 2022 opened a production facility combined with an event center and concert hall. Their pub is music centered as shown in their decor and beer names and their stated purpose is “to build a brand; crafting high quality beverages while providing memorable experiences for our customers.”
