Whatrsquos with the name For the name the owners believed that a tattered flag is not just a worn piece of clothhellip but a symbol of experience and character Threadbare and frayed a tattered flag still represents the ideals and beliefs of those who stand behind it constantly seeking excellence success and achievement of those goals with honor

This combo craft brewery amp distillery has been an idea in the minds of Pat Devlin Matt Fritz Tony DeLellis and Ben Ramsay since they graduated high school together in 2000 Tattered Flag is a veteran-owned operation and therefore the owners live by the character they identify in a worn flag as they strive to give back to the surrounding communities by producing a high-quality product locally and providing local patrons and first-time visitors with a warm and welcoming experience

Whatrsquos with the name For the name the owners believed that a tattered flag is not just a worn piece of clothhellip but a symbol of experience and character Threadbare and frayed a tattered flag still represents the ideals and beliefs of those who stand behind it constantly seeking excellence success and achievement of those goals with honor

This combo craft brewery amp distillery has been an idea in the minds of Pat Devlin Matt Fritz Tony DeLellis and Ben Ramsay since they graduated high school together in 2000 Tattered Flag is a veteran-owned operation and therefore the owners live by the character they identify in a worn flag as they strive to give back to the surrounding communities by producing a high-quality product locally and providing local patrons and first-time visitors with a warm and welcoming experience

Whatrsquos with the name For the name the owners believed that a tattered flag is not just a worn piece of clothhellip but a symbol of experience and character Threadbare and frayed a tattered flag still represents the ideals and beliefs of those who stand behind it constantly seeking excellence success and achievement of those goals with honor
