Already having a love of beer from their college days Gabe Haim had his eyes opened to the homebrew world by his cousin after a tip in Florida in 2007. A few years later he and his partner Ryan Schlotter started brewing their own. They opened Oyster Bay Brewing Company in 2012. In February they moved out of a cramped space into their new place on Audrey Ave.
