Founders To Celebrate 15 Years With Bolt Cutter

Founders Brewing was founded 15 years ago by Mike Stevens and Dave Engbers. The duo both had non-beer, business, and undoubtedly boring jobs.  Beer was their calling.  After nearly going bankrupt making some “unremarkable” beers, they decided to make beer for themselves. Basically, what they want to drink – not everyone else.

They’ve come a long way in 15 years! In 2012, a few of their beers are ranked among the best on planet earth.  RateBeer.com ranks Founders #2 in the world. Not bad right?  In true beer fashion, the brewery is planning a special anniversary release.  That’s Bolt Cutter pictured above. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to go ahead and assume the name is an allusion to “cutting the chain” on ordinary beer.  It’s a big one too – 15%.  That’s puts some limitations on what states Founders can ship it to.  (I’m looking at you Georgia.)
