We are the ITO Brewers … It. Takes. Ovaries. For most of history, women were the brewmasters. With our ITO Brewery, we are faux-menting rebellion to reclaim our rightful brewing heritage. Seven women: Dixie Biggs, Persistent Pilsner. Sharon Doughtie, Booby Trap Beer, Jean LeGwin, Bluestocking Blond. Betty Scarpino, Menopause Malt. Andi Wolfe, Alewife Ale. Lynne Yamaguchi, Divine Stout. And, Katie Hudnall made the crate.
