Back in October, the wife and I took a trip over to Hammond and of course I made a point to find a brewery. We headed over to Deadbeat Brewing and met the owners, Danny, Luke, and Brad. I had tried their stuff previously at a beer fest so was eager to try their beer again as they had just opened the brewery in June of this year.
Danny, Luke and Brad met while attending Southeastern and used to homebrew in Danny's garage before making the leap to brewing as a business.
The brewery is a 7 barrel brewhouse nestled on a lake on the property of Blackened Brew restaurant which is where the old Catfish Charlie's was located. Their first year expectation is to brew 300 barrels with very limited self distribution.
Their name, Deadbeat Brewing comes from their time participating in homebrew festivals. They wanted a name which was a play on words that included music, skeletons, and voodoo dolls and Dead and Beat fit. Their logo is a reflection of that, with the voodoo doll playing the drum. They call the voodoo doll Stitch and even have a beer named Super Stitch Wit and use drum sticks as tap handles.
I had the Karate Class Dropout which is a West Coast IPA and Vacation Camo which is a Helles. Both were awesome. Next time you are in Hammond make it a point to stop at DeadBeat Brewing! These guys are doing good things!
