The last eleven years for Angry Chair have included two<\/a> moves<\/a>, a handful of disgruntled neighbors<\/a>, thousands of beers poured, and absolutely no Jenga. <\/p>\n Co-founder Ryan Dowdle has spent more than a decade leading a brewery known for its cynicism, but he\u2019s still got a soft spot for the people who have kept it going.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter 11 years of Angry Chair, what we\u2019re most proud of isn\u2019t just the beer\u2014it\u2019s the people behind it,\u201d Dowdle told Creative Loafing. <\/p>\n \u201cThe bartenders who know your drink before you sit down, the brewers who chase ideas that shouldn\u2019t work but somehow do, the kitchen, the cellarmen, and the folks who open, close, scrub, lift, fix, pour, and care. Our staff is the backbone of every pour and every story that\u2019s happened here.\u201d <\/p>\n He continued, \u201cWe\u2019ve watched strangers become regulars, regulars become family, and wild concepts scribbled in the margins become beers people still talk about. We built a place that\u2019s unapologetic, a little rough around the edges, unafraid to push hard and take risks\u2014and we\u2019re still here, still fighting, still proud. Eleven years later, we owe that to the people who show up: the staff and the community that never stopped choosing us.\u201d <\/p>\n For its anniversary, the Southeast Seminole Heights brewery is releasing a special barrel-aged bottle.<\/p>\n
