About Tributary Brewing:

One Tributary Leads to Another… Founded in 2014, Tod Mott and his wife, Galen have fulfilled Tod’s long-held dream of having a brewery of his own. Tod has been a master brewer for over three decades. Most fans know him as New England’s brewing legend, creator of the original recipe of Harpoon IPA, and Portsmouth Brewery’s cult status, Kate the Great Imperial Stout. Ten years later, the family business has expanded to include their son, Woody as head brewer. Together they create an amazing selection of true-to-style beers and lagers including the highly acclaimed Tributary Pale Ale, international style lagers, pilsners, dark ales, and Mott the Lesser Imperial Stout, the heir to Kate the Great.


Inspiration in Nature
We find the inspiration for Tributary beer in the landscape of Southern Maine, with its winding brooks, saltwater marshes, and tidal rivers converging into the mighty Piscataqua River. Tod and Galen are passionate environmentalists and understand the critical importance of good, clean water.
Water is the most vital component in the brewing process; Tributary is our metaphor for the delicate brewing process. Tod’s skill, ingenuity, and creativity, combined with our mission to preserve this way of life, results in small batches of Tod’s favorite recipes for traditional, well-balanced, full-bodied beers – many of them! Tributary’s home is the coastal town of Kittery, Maine. We use only the finest malt and hops in our brews for beer lovers locally and beyond.
