It was the first large scale brewery to open in Baltimore in 35 years. [1] In 2015, Old Oriole Park Bohemian won Best in Show in the Maryland Craft Beer Competition.[2] In 2017, Lost Python Ale was created in honor of Mr. Trash Wheel when a three foot python was found in the trash collected in the Inner Harbor.[3] Other beers brands are also brewed on site.[4]
Location
Peabody Heights is located on the site of the Old Oriole Park V (1914-1944) and was the home of the Baltimore Orioles minor league team.[5] A section of the original stadium still remains though it was mostly destroyed by a fire in 1944.[6] Old Oriole Park uses an image from the era which was the subject of a lawsuit.[7] Prior to being a brewery the site was used as a bottling plant for Beverage Capital which produced Snapple.
