Break Rock Brewing Co.

Let’s talk logo… Our name is a nod to the quarrying history of Quincy. We needed a logo that fit our name and this history, so we turned to @ryanmerrydesign Ryan used a photo from the @quincyquarryandgraniteworkers museum for inspiration. The picture (shown above) is of a pneumatic star drill. This drill was used to split and remove large sections of bed rock. In the drill holes, feathers and wedges were inserted and hammered to split the massive pieces. We love that our logo looks great and ties back to the rich history of Quincy! We hope you like it!

Rounding out our team introductions: Jay Southwood, Founder & President. Jay grew up in Marshfield but now resides in Weymouth with his family. He has been in the craft beer industry for over a decade – holding positions in both sales and in production, ranging from Packaging to Head Brewer. He jokes that “his story is not unique to the brewing industry” – having started as a homebrewer who fell in love with making beer and ultimately changed careers to do it for a living! Opening Break Rock Brewing is a dream he has held since his homebrewing days. In 2018, he formed the business and approached his long time friend Vilija to help make the dream a reality! Fun fact about Jay: Favorite trip taken was to New Zealand. While there, he stayed at a hilltop residence with sweeping views of hop yards and vineyards. It was harvest season. The smell of fresh hops in the air was unforgettable!
