(Boston, MA) – A production crew is making the trek to Harpoon Brewery tonight.

That’s right. With the recently-announced BREWED already signed and sealed, there’s word of another television show possibly in the cards, this time on The History Channel. Here’s the scoop:

“On Tuesday, August 3rd, filming for a brand new History Channel pilot about beer will take place in the Harpoon Brewery tasting room in Boston. Two pairs of homebrewers have been challenged to recreate a very special beer from history. A panel of professional beer experts (including award-winning beer writer Kerry Byrne, Brooklyn Brewery’s Garrett Oliver, and Harpoon’s very own Chief Brewing Officer Al Marzi!).” People in the studio audience, which has already been selected for tonight’s filming, will also be called on to judge their efforts and vote on which beer they prefer.

This is just a pilot and there’s no contract for a series (yet?) to my knowledge. Harpoon Senior VP Marketing, Charles Storey, confirmed that if all goes well that he expects the episode to air in November. Storey was unable to comment about the larger scope and implications of the project but if this were to turn into a series, it would likely be filmed at various breweries across the country.

Chalk this one up as “developing” for now.
