## THE MARCH FIRST BRANDS STORY
March First Brands started out as March First Brewing in 2017. It was founded with the same spirit of independence and tenacity as our nation. “March First” pays homage to the great state of Ohio, founded March 1, 1803. The team set out to create drinkable and approachable craft beer, cider, and spirits and little did they know that the business would grow so quickly over a short period of time.
​
Since our humble beginnings we have developed our brands into regional powerhouses by focusing on developing quality products, innovating flavors and acquiring brands into our diverse portfolio. Today March First Brands encompasses March First Brewing in Sycamore Township, Ohio, FigLeaf Brewing in Middletown, Ohio and Woodburn Brewing in Cincinnati, Ohio. Our Cincinnati Distilling division produces fine whiskeys and bourbons as well as Voltage Vodka, Red Sky Gin, Cooper Island Rum, Rebellion Tequila and Stillrights Distilling which features a bourbon, spiced rum and a line of moonshines. You can find out more about these brands within our family right here on our website.
## WHY DO WE DO IT?
To create an ever growing number of well paying, rewarding and sustainable American jobs by producing the highest quality, handcrafted adult beverages designed to make the world a happier place.

## WOODBURN BREWING
The legend of the phoenix is one of life and death, creation and destruction, birth and rebirth. As ancient texts tell the story, the phoenix lives for thousands of years before going out in a fiery blaze of glory. It then rises from the ashes, renewed and reborn.
At Woodburn Brewing we look to the phoenix as an inspiration. We find the good in all things and all people. It also symbolizes the rebirth of the Cincinnati brewing legacy over the last 100 years. We raise a glass to Cincinnati brewing heritage one pint at a time.

## CINCINNATI DISTILLING
In 1794, Christian Waldschmidt, a veteran of the American Revolution and businessman, started a new community at a site on the Little Miami River in Sycamore Township, Ohio.  He built a general store, a blacksmith shop, a church, Ohio's first paper mill and one of Cincinnati's first distilleries. After Christian Waldschmidt passed away in 1814 he passed his legacy onto his daughter Catherine and son-in-law Mathias Kugler. They continued their father’s business and distilling legacy for decades.
Today we produce only the finest whiskeys just a short distance from that original settlement. Our distillery is located in the Kugler’s historic home celebrating the Waldschmidt and Kugler’s distilling heritage and rugged pioneering spirit.
Address: 203 Mill St. Milford, OH 45150
