Perkiomen Valley Brewery - Wildly Authentic - Foraged, Trail, & Traditonal Brews | Autism-family owned | Accessible Taproom

Actions

Perkiomen Valley Brewery in Green Lane, PA is a tiny scratch beer brewery in the smallest borough in Montgomery County. We specialize in foraged beers hitting the many trails, woods, and fields surrounding us, as well as our and friends’ gardens for ingredients to add to our beers. We are autism family-owned and operated. Our sons, Noah & Jonah, both on the autism spectrum, work at PVB doing all our bottling, packaging, and keg washing. Kelly was diagnosed with autism in her 50s.
Though small, our brewery is a trendsetter. We were the second brewery in the United States to intentionally make our taproom fully accessible for people with physical disabilities and neuro-diversities. From our double entryway to level floor, to ceiling with LED daylight lights to assist with low vision, to menus with dyslexic friendly font, to our sensory room, to a companion bathroom with full-sized and motorized changing table for ages birth-adult. Kelly and Tom designed Perkiomen Valley Brewery for comfort, safety, ease of use, and aesthetics to prove that inclusive design and trendy spaces can mesh. Some breweries and businesses have taken some of our designs and included them in theirs. Three Cheers! The more inclusive spaces the better!
Outside of the brewery, Tom and Kelly love being together, spending Q-time with our kids and friends, walks in the wild, staring at the clouds or stars, and floating in the pool with a good beer and good music.
