Ale Industries was the second brewery to open in Concord, and just happened to be right next door to us (man, we were lucky)! Morgan and Steve, the brewers and co-owners, opened Ale Industries with one thing in mind - to not brew the same beers that everyone else is brewing. Their first beer, a hybrid Witbier called "Orange Kush" (now called Golden State of Mind), is more malty and aromatic than most commercial wits are. The second beer, Rye'd Piper, is a malty red ale that has a very hop-forward structure, but not over the top, like some reds can be.
