In early 2010, Scott Hovey was ripe for a mid-life career change and when he looked for inspiration<br />

he found it in the eclectic and exciting life of his deceased older brother, Adelbert. Inspired by his<br />

brother’s willingness to chase his dreams, Scott decided to turn his homebrew hobby into a career.<br />

Always a fan of Belgian style ales, Scott was introduced to the complexities and flavor possibilities<br />

in bottle conditioned aged Belgian beers at the 2010 Craft Brewers <strong>Co</strong>nference. He returned and set<br />

out to start <strong>Austin</strong>’s first all Belgian style bottle and keg conditioned brewery, aptly named after his<br />

older brother. Of the six beers to be released in 2012, each one is named after an experience or story<br />

that his brother Adelbert loved to tell.
