FAQ
Q: Who is Cured Craft Brewing Co?
A: Cured Craft Brewing Co is proudly owned by Scott & Lisa Bradt. Together, their mission was to transform the brewery into an in-house bistro, showcasing wonderful foods that they sell at their butcher shop (Bradt’s Butcher Block - located across the street). The idea of transforming their location into a brewery came from their new-found love of craft beer and the exciting experience in providing a warm and welcome space for family and friends. Nevertheless, their new venture has been a thrilling and rewarding step in the right direction.

FAQ – About our Products
Q: Do you brew all your own beer on site?
A: Yes! Cured Craft Brewing Co prides its product on every beverage servicing out of our taps. Represented by the Cured label, our beverages are hand crafted in small batches on site, all packaged, labelled, and verified by our amazing brewhouse staff before it gets to you!
Q: Are any of the beer’s gluten-free?
A: Although we wish to accommodate in every way we can, our delicious beer however is not gluten-free.
Q: What are the “floaters” in my beer?
A: The small debris you see circulating in the brew we call “floaters”, are small sediments. Sediments are natural and entirely safe to consume. The presence of such floaters results from a component of the beer’s hops. Together they occasionally bind together with its protein and create the sediment you see. Since some beers are unfiltered and further hoppy, those beers are more likely than others to develop this sediment over time.
In the meantime, you can continue to enjoy the delicious, hoppy beers. We recommend you take the following steps to reduce the transfer of sediment to the glass:
- Store and chill the beer upright (not lying flat) in your fridge. If the beer has recently been transported or laid on its side, set it upright and give it 3-4 hours for the sediment to settle to the bottom of the bottle.
- Always serve the beer in a glass – we suggest a tulip-shaped glass such as the Brussels. Pour slowly, but with enough vigour to create some foam and begin to release the hop aromas. Using one non-stop pour is ideal – if this requires two glasses, have them both ready and be sure not to upright the bottle in between.
- Try not to drain the bottle entirely; leave behind the last ounce or so that is heavy with sediment.
