Chamber of Commerce to Screen 'Brew Hampshire' on July 14

DERRY, NH — The Greater Derry Londonderry Chamber of Commerce will host a screening of the new documentary film “Brew Hampshire,” at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 14, at the Derry Opera House, 29 West Broadway, in downtown Derry, according to a press statement.

The event, which is sponsored by Iron Heart Canning, will also give attendees the opportunity to sample local craft beers and to hear from a panel comprised of the film’s producer as well as local brewers and beer purveyors who are featured in the film.

Here's a teaser of the film.

“Brew Hampshire” is an award-winning feature length documentary about the rise of craft beer in the Granite State. It showcases, according to Greater Derry Londonderry Chamber of Commerce President Will Stewart, the varying shapes and sizes of breweries in New Hampshire, the fascinating personalities behind their creations, and what it is about New Hampshire that attracts the entrepreneurial spirit.
Between them, the towns of Derry and Londonderry have seen five breweries open in recent years: 603 Brewery in Londonderry, From the Barrel Brewing Company in Londonderry, Kelsen Brewing Company in Derry, Pipe Dream Brewing in Londonderry, and Rockingham Brewing Company in Derry.

“The craft beer industry is seeing phenomenal growth in the Derry-Londonderry region,” Stewart said. “And given the industry’s economic development potential with regard to both job creation and tourism, the Chamber is excited to host this event to further promote and celebrate our region’s craft breweries.”

Tickets to the “Brew Hampshire” screening and beer sampling are $10 and can be purchased by those 21 and older at gdlchamber.org or by calling the Chamber at 603-432-8205.
