Iron Hill sets its debut for Chestnut Hill
Michael Klein, Philly.com
Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant has set Wednesday, Jan. 4, at 4 p.m., for the opening toast of its Chestnut Hill location at 8400 Germantown Ave.
Founders Kevin Finn, Kevin Davies, and Mark Edelson will do the ceremonial first pour with Councilman Bill Green and Councilwoman Cindy Bass. The restaurant will officially open to the public at 5 p.m. It will serve lunch and dinner daily.
Head brewer Paul Rutherford will oversee Iron Hill’s six house beers. With chef Mario Romero and general manager Matt Radebach, this is the youngest opening team among Iron Hill's nine locations: West Chester, Media, Lancaster, North Wales and Phoenixville, Pa.; Newark and Wilmington, Del.; and Maple Shade, N.J.
I'll be glad. Their workers clogged that parking lot and were basically slobs (I like to think that the regular job holders will park off site and recognize that they need to be aware that real people live nearby) and occasionally very threatening. And, the construction was a great inconvenience to all near neighbors, Let's hope Iron Hill proves to be a better neighbor than their crew was was during their construction.— JTDF
