Southern Tier Brewing Company
Phineas DeMink, Sara DeMink and Allen "Skip" Yahn founded Southern Tier in 2002 in the woods outside Lakewood, New York, on equipment from the Old Saddleback Brewing Co. in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. The grand opening on April 7, 2003 featured an IPA, Pilsner, Mild and Porter. Since 2004 the Blackwater Series has pushed dessert stouts, and today a 110-barrel Steinecker brewhouse from Germany anchors the campus.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
