[edit] History

Jason Spaulding and Brett VanderKamp, the founders of New Holland Brewing Company, grew up together in Midland, Michigan, and later attended Hope College. In college Spaulding and VanderKamp cultivated a love of homebrewing, which would bring them together again shortly after graduation. Their business plan took two years to formulate, but once complete, the pair quickly lined up investors, and in 1996 New Holland was founded in Holland, Michigan.[1]

Originally, the duo's goal was to produce beer that was characteristically unique to Western Michigan. Their beer was well received, and in 2004, the company increased production to just over 5,000 US barrels.[2]
