"It would be tough to speak about the cutting edge of Pennsylvania beer without mentioning Søle, the rare gypsy brewery on this list. Helmed by self-proclaimed “food nut” Joe Percoco, who previously held countless jobs within the food industry, he eventually found his life’s work in producing the artisan, farmhouse-style beers of Europe. After brief stints at Funk, Weyerbacher, and even Cantillon in Belgium, Percoco founded SØLE in 2015 (he’s still in his mid-twenties by the way). Mostly brewing out of Susquehanna Brewing Company, Percoco’s beers like Turbo Nerd Xtra IPA have become a sensation amongst beer geeks, who line up on weekends hoping to snag cans. You’ll finally be able to visit this gypsy soon; Sole Bar + Bottle is slated to open in Easton soon." [foodandwine.com]
