At Property Tenders, we’ve launched a new initiative called “Behind the Business” where we highlight local, family-run companies in Sussex County. Recently, we had the privilege of stepping behind the scenes at one of our favorite spots— Bethany Brewing Company in Ocean View, Delaware. Meet Larry and Gary – The Beer Wizards 🍺 Our tour was led by two incredible people: Larry , who brings a strong background in the manufacturing industry and has transformed his skills into the craft of brewing. Gary , a brewer with a successful brewery in Florida, who brings his wealth of beer knowledge to the Bethany Brewing team. Together, they are the technical wizards of the hops—sharing their expertise, passion, and humor while showing us what it really takes to make great local beer. Behind the Scenes of Oktoberfest We got a firsthand look at the brewing process, including preparations for their popular Oktoberfest beer .

As a local, community-rooted business, we're constantly working to get in front of new customers while staying true to our mission of honesty, reliability, and high-quality service. Every time someone shares one of our posts, it’s more than a click. It’s a message. It says, “I believe in this company, their work, and the people behind it.” Many small businesses, including ours, aren’t just about profit. We’re often deeply connected to nonprofit initiatives, youth programs, local events, or community sponsorships. A share is a sign of alignment with that bigger picture. It shows that you recognize the heart behind the hustle. We’re especially honored when friends from our teaching days share our updates or when customers tag us in Facebook groups and recommend us to their neighbors. It’s equally rewarding when those same custom...
