MONTCLAIR, New Jersey Since 2018, New Jersey s Montclair Brewery has distinguished itself by brewing beer that honors the Black culture and the West African and Jamaican roots of its owners, Leo and Denise Sawadogo. It s a dream every single day to see everybody sitting here drinking beer that I made. It s just mind-boggling to me, said Leo Sawadogo.
Every February, as the country celebrates Black history month, the Montclair brewery has made it a tradition to produce new craft brews that pay tribute to Black History and renowned Black figures.
