Black Star Co-op Pub and Brewery

The Black Star Co-op Pub and Brewery is the first co-operatively owned and self-managed brewpub in the United States.  With its first general membership meeting in 2006 and official opening in 2010, the consumer cooperative now has nearly 3,200 member-owners and 27 workers, who receive a living wage and benefits.  Beers are crafted based on member feedback through tasting panels and member-owner beer-design meetings, and its menu focuses on locally-sourced and sustainably-produced food.
