Only Child Brewing Company isn't just all about me ;-)

Although I am an Only Child, I am also a Husband, a Father, and a son.  My passion is not just about brewing beer.  It's about sharing.  I know that sounds contrary to what most people think of us Solo-Born, but it's just the way I am.  My wife Amanda and I opened a Small Batch Craft Brewery on Chicago's North Shore just over a year ago.  While I focus on the science and creativity of it all (brewing & drinking beer), Amanda manages all of our accounts, our packaging, and promotional aspects of the business.  We make a great team and we really put our blood, sweat & tears into this business.  Our one and only employee just so happens to be my Dad. Pops comes in every week and helps us with packaging on our bottling day.  Any bottle of Only Child beer that has ever been popped open was capped and meticulously wiped down by a 62 year old, retired, proud Dad.  We keep it real close around here!
We are looking to expand out of our current Production Facility and open a second location that would bring our passions straight to you, freshly poured into your glass.  Our Taproom would feature every variety of beer that we produce, and it would be as fresh as one could possibly find.  The North Shore may have a lot of things, but it does not have a place to go to truly embrace what the Craft Beer Culture has to offer.  We would not only be pouring our own fresh beer, but we would be featuring many other local Chicago-land Breweries on tap as well, to show our love and support for our wonderful industry.  To further succeed in supporting other local small businesses around us, rather than having a kitchen and our own menu, all of our food at the Taproom will be sourced from local area Food Trucks, take out from local restaurants, and artisanal snacks such as small batch beef jerky & gourmet nuts that pair with beer.
Funding for this project will not only succeed in bringing this amazing concept to an area that lacks something this innovative, but it will also promote countless other local small businesses, as well as create new jobs in the process.  The funds we hope to raise will be used primarily towards the build out costs of our facility.  Your donations will paint the walls, run the electric, and build the very bar at which you may enjoy our beers at.  With every contribution there is of course, a reward ;-)
