What so proudly we hail.
Honestly, we are a small brewery founded by 2 guys who love good beer. We get inspiration from traditional German and English styles then add a personal touch. Brewing is a craft and we are happy tradesmen.
Aggie Owned & Operated
We’re no two-percenters. NRB is run by a core of current and former students (and one slightly befuddled non-Aggie). Leave a penny for Sully on our behalf and enjoy a New Republic beer when you celebrate.
Local & Fresh
Local beer is all about good beer. The best beer you’re ever going to have is right after it comes out of the brewery. When it’s fresh it’s going to taste great. We are Aggieland’s first microbrewery so come take a tour and get the freshest beer you can.
Meet The Brewers
Dean Brundage
Founder / Unscrambler of Eggs
Dean is the Outside Guy of New Republic Brewing. Whether working or playing Dean enjoys exercise & sporting, folksy-punk-rockish-bluesy-nerdcore music and mathematics. Surrounding him is the best wife, loving family & great friends.
John Januskey
Founder / Fixer of broken stuff
John, our Inside Guy, graduated from A&M in ’02 and left for Houston, but has since wandered back. He likes beer, working with tools, and fixing broken stuff, but not writing about me blurbs.
Adrienne Brundage
Founder / Chief Scientist
Adrienne is working on a PhD in Forensic Entomology at A&M University. That gives her just a little time to enjoy the beer John & Dean make and dream about the day New Republic produces an IPA.
Lisa Januskey
Founder
Lisa graduated from Texas A&M in 2002 then UHCO in 2006. She opened her own optometric practice in College Station in 2007 and applies her business knowledge to help New Repubic Brewing grow. She jokes that she has one business that causes double vision and another that will correct it. Skylight excites Lisa since that is the first style of beer she actually enjoyed.
