the new us.
Fresh Look. Same Way Back.
Since 2012, Back East has been more than just a brewery—we've been a place where memories are crafted, inspired by the simple joys of being "back east”. Our new branding is a nod to what truly matters: quality beer, shared laughter, and the warmth of community.
This rebrand isn’t just about a new look; it’s about reconnecting with the past to bring you an easygoing, nostalgic atmosphere. It’s about celebrating the moments that bring us all together.
We can't wait to share more of our exciting brand developments with you.
