Origin
Vermont, United States
Catamount Brewing was founded in 1984 in White River Junction, Vermont by Stephen Mason, Alan Davis and Stephen Israel. In 1996, the company expanded to a new $3 million facility in Windsor, Vermont and reached an annual brewing volume of 22,000 barrels. However, mounting debts caused it to shut down, and in 2000 it was purchased for $1 million by Mass. Bay Brewing, which still uses the facility as a taproom. They have also kept the brand, which is still distributed throughout the area. In 2014, Mass. Bay Brewing became employee owned through their employee stock ownership plan. In late 2024, Mass. Bay Brewing Company merged with Finestkind Beverages, the parent company of Smuttynose Brewing to become Barrel One Collective, which ended the ESOP for the company’s employees.
