About the Creator:
George Kuech is a homegrown Philly kid & an avid homebrewer since 1999. Primarily concentrating on his craft, rather than a particular style, George’s beers have been brewed
under the monocle “12 String Brewing.” With brew names such as Jackson Brown Ale, Slow Hand ESB & Bon Scotch Ale, it’s easy to see where the inspiration comes from for
his brews. Recently his 12 String Schuylkill Kolsch Style Ale was the feature beer during local Philly band, D.T.O’s record release party.
