The city's newest homegrown craft brewery opened Sept. 2 at Fort Benjamin Harrison. The brewery
is at 5764 Wheeler Road. The tasting room is smoke-free and family friendly and features flat-screen TVs, partners Mike DeWeese,
Jon Lang and David Waldman wrote in an email. The partners raised about $1 million for the venture and purchased most of their
brewing equipment from the former Warbird Brewing Co. of Fort Wayne. The brewery name is a reference to beer’s largest
ingredient, water. Triton beers will be made with reverse-osmosis-treated water fortified with minerals appropriate for each
type of beer. For example, stouts will be made with water formulated to match that of Dublin, Ireland; and IPAs will be made
with London-formulated water. “It’s an extra 7 cents per gallon of cost, but that’s minute when you think
of how much better the beer will taste,” DeWeese told IBJ for a story last year. “You’ll taste
things in our beer you can’t taste at any other brewery because there will be nothing to mask the ingredients.”
