The Kicking Mule Brewing Co. at West Point enables members of our chemical engineering club, students, and beer enthusiasts alike to acquire chemical engineering acumen, knowledge, and skills by developing a tangible product. Through a rigorous on-site brewing process with subject matter experts, our goal is enhancement of student chemical engineering knowledge with respect to batch reactors and mixtures, heat exchange processes, process control, and bio-chemical reaction kinetics while simultaneously providing quality products to The United States Corps of Cadets.
