Josue Matos has spent virtually his whole life in Reading, PA, first in Reading School District and then Albright College School of Professional Studies. As part of the capstone project required for graduation, he and his classmates were tasked with creating a business plan. One colleague mentioned that her son had just come back from California raving about a self-serve beer wall and after research, months of planning, and edits upon edits to the business plan this idea turned into a career. With support from life-long friends and family, Beer Wall on Penn was born in 2019 featuring two self-serve beer walls, a cocktail bar, gastropub menu, and a free retro arcade game room. As a self-proclaimed craft beer lover, Josue may have created the perfect job for himself. Success and expansion continues with the newly opened Beer Wall on Prince in downtown Lancaster, PA.
