Celebrating 30 Years of Heavy Seas

“Join us for our 30th Anniversary Beer Festival on Saturday, December 6th from 12-4 PM and help us celebrate 30 years of bold brews, good times, and Maryland pride!

We’ll be joined by 15 other Maryland/regional breweries for this all-you-can-sample tasting experience!

And be amongst the first to try our special, limited release, 30th Anniversary Beer - 30 Year Storm, a barrel aged strong ale thundering in at 11.5% ABV, aged in a trifecta of bourbon, rye and sherry barrels.”

This announcement comes at a milestone moment. Heavy Seas—Maryland’s largest craft brewery—celebrates its 30th Anniversary on December 8, 2025. To mark the occasion, Heavy Seas will host a 30th Anniversary Celebration at the brewery on Saturday, December 6, 2025, in partnership with the Brewers Association of Maryland (BAM). A portion of proceeds will benefit BAM’s mission to support and promote Maryland’s craft beer industry. Details for the Anniversary event will be announced in mid-October on the Heavy Seas website and social media channels.

The event will also feature the release of 30 Year Storm, a limited barrel-aged strong ale (11.5% ABV), aged in bourbon, rye, and sherry barrels. “This anniversary beer represents the culmination of three decades of creativity, experimentation, and resilience—everything Heavy Seas stands for,” said Caroline Sisson.
