Overview

White Marsh Brewing Company, LLC is a brewery founded in 1996 by Bill Blocher and Tony Meoli in Maryland, United States. The company is associated with Red Brick Station, a restaurant located on The Avenue in White Marsh. Red Brick Station functions as the brewery's principal customer-facing outlet, and the beer served there is produced by White Marsh Brewing Company. This integrated brewery-and-restaurant model gives the company a localized distribution structure rather than a broad national retail presence. The brewery's regular beer range has included several styles intended to cover different drinking preferences. Avenue Ale is presented as an ale, while Honeygo Lite is a lighter ale. Daily Crisis IPA represents the company's India pale ale offering, Something Red is an amber ale, and Spooners Stout provides a darker stout option. The company has also offered rotating seasonal beers at Red Brick Station, including Big Gunpowder Pale Ale, Highlander Heavy, and Blueberry Ale. Seasonal availability varies during the year. White Marsh Brewing Company became a member of the Brewers Association of Maryland, connecting it with the state's organized craft-brewing community. Its distribution history includes a notable disruption in early 2008, when Old Dominion, described as the brewery's primary distributor, was sold to Coastal Brewing. The available reference material does not establish the company's subsequent distribution arrangements, ownership structure, production volume, financial performance, or present operating status. Accordingly, the best-supported description is of a Maryland brewery centered on an affiliated restaurant and a house portfolio of year-round and seasonal beers.

History

White Marsh Brewing Company, LLC was established in 1996 by Bill Blocher and Tony Meoli. The brewery developed in White Marsh, Maryland, and built its public presence around Red Brick Station, a restaurant on The Avenue in White Marsh. Unlike a brewery whose principal business is broad packaged-beer distribution, White Marsh Brewing Company's documented model places its own restaurant at the center of sales and consumer access. The beer served at Red Brick Station is brewed by the company. The brewery's documented portfolio combines familiar beer categories with house names. Its year-round list has included Avenue Ale, Honeygo Lite, Daily Crisis IPA, Something Red, and Spooners Stout. Together, these beers cover ale, light ale, India pale ale, amber ale, and stout styles. The company has also produced or served seasonal beers that change over the course of the year. Examples identified in the reference material include Big Gunpowder Pale Ale, Highlander Heavy, and Blueberry Ale. The seasonal program allowed the Red Brick Station outlet to vary its beer selection beyond the core range. White Marsh Brewing Company joined the Brewers Association of Maryland, placing it within the state's brewing-industry network. Its distribution history records a change in early 2008, when Old Dominion, identified as the company's primary distributor, was sold to Coastal Brewing. This event meant that the brewery lost its principal distribution relationship. The available material does not document the replacement distributor, the commercial consequences of the change, or any later expansion of the brewery's distribution footprint. Publicly available reference information for this entry is limited. It does not provide verified details about production capacity, packaging formats, ownership after the founding period, executive succession, revenue, employee count, or current brewing operations. It also does not establish whether every historical beer remains available today. The company's documented identity is therefore best understood as a Maryland brewery and restaurant-based beer brand with a localized operating model and a portfolio spanning year-round and seasonal offerings.
