About Tröegs Independent Brewing:

Founded in the heart of Pennsylvania by brothers John and Chris Trogner, Tröegs Independent Brewing has spent decades establishing itself as a premier destination for adventurous craft beer lovers and passionate connoisseurs alike. From humble beginnings driven by an unwavering obsession with quality ingredients, independent spirit, and creative brewing techniques, Tröegs has grown into a nationally recognized powerhouse while remaining fiercely dedicated to its craft roots. Every single batch of beer that emerges from our state-of-the-art brewhouse reflects a deep-seated commitment to exploratory brewing, traditional European lagering methods, and innovative American hop-forward ales.

At the core of the Tröegs portfolio is our celebrated flagship Perpetual IPA, a beer that redefined hop-forward brewing across the region with its signature blend of Cascade, Chinook, and Citra hops. However, our creative drive extends far beyond our year-round lineup. Through our experimental Scratch Beer Series, our brewers are given the absolute freedom to test new hop varieties, wild yeast strains, unique grain bills, and unconventional flavor combinations on a weekly basis. This relentless pursuit of liquid perfection has led to iconic fan favorites such as Scratch 557 West Coast-style Pilsner, Nugget Nectar, Master of Pumpkins, and our extensive seasonal rotating lineup.

Beyond our dedication to exceptional liquid, sustainability, community engagement, and artistic expression remain deeply embedded in the Tröegs culture. Our brewery design integrates creative aesthetics inspired by the local landscape, featuring custom artwork, local artisan collaborations, and a vibrant community atmosphere at our Hershey, Pennsylvania taproom and General Store. Here, visitors can enjoy behind-the-scenes guided brewery tours, sample rare and small-batch Scratch series releases straight from the fermentation tanks, and dine on fresh, locally sourced food at our scratch kitchen.

Whether you are seeking a crisp, refreshing pilsner on a warm afternoon, a rich and malty lager during the crisp autumn harvest season, or a bold imperial IPA to challenge your palate, Tröegs Independent Brewing continues to push the absolute limits of independent craft beer innovation. We invite beer enthusiasts from near and far to join us in our ongoing exploration of flavor, community, and uncompromising brewing excellence. Cheers to great beer, independent craft brewing, and many more years of unforgettable shared experiences with our loyal fans across the country!
