"Talea Beer Co. started out with the aim to set a new standard in craft beer. Founders Tara Hankinson and LeAnn Darland shared a gripe with both the craft beer space and the beer industry at large: It mainly marketed to men. The pair has tried to upend those beer industry norms with Talea."
"Upon its 2019 debut, Hankinson and Darland were the first women to own a brewery in New York City. That remains true today. Now available in bars, restaurants, retail stores, and across their five taprooms, Talea has gained traction beyond New York City in nearby states including New Jersey and Pennsylvania."
"Talea commissioned Sarah Carpenter & Studio - a woman-owned architecture firm that has built some of the city's buzziest bars and restaurants - to design the facade and interior of its two Brooklyn locations. Subsequently, the woman- and minority-owned ALA Studio designed Talea's three taprooms in Manhattan."
Talea Beer Co. was established by founders Tara Hankinson and LeAnn Darland to address the craft beer industry's male-focused marketing. Upon launching in 2019, they became the first women to own a brewery in New York City, a distinction they maintain today. The brewery has expanded significantly, operating five taprooms and distributing products across New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania through bars, restaurants, and retail locations. Talea has received recognition from major publications including The New York Times, BBC, and Forbes. The company maintains its core mission of uplifting women's voices in business. All of Talea's physical locations were designed by female-led architecture firms, including Sarah Carpenter & Studio for Brooklyn locations and ALA Studio for Manhattan taprooms.
