Bircus Brewing Co.

Today, I visited the The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room in Manhattan. One week from today @repthomasmassie faces Ed Gallrein (Trump’s anointed challenger) in the Republican Primary. Bircus is located the 4th District. Massie has been working to release the Epstein Files. Bircus was started in Ludlow Kentucky to deal with local yokel political corruption and I, Paul Hallinan Miller am running for Mayor of Ludlow in November of 2026. The time is now to hold elected and appointed leaders accountable. Best of luck Thomas, I will be seeking your endorsement. #releasethefiles #paulitics #thomasmassie

Happiest of Birthdays to @jugglingpizzadad @soularart From Pizzas to juggling clubs, and everything in between… See Damien’s latest venture this Saturday at @calinas_collectables Mother’s Day Eve Event at the old Bircus kitchen/taproom and @circusmojo ‘s Circus Suites

Is there a cabal that runs our community? Does the Deep State exist? Is there a group of powerful people who can use the government to get what they want? I don’t know. But I do know this— 11 years ago today, the Ludlow Fire Department and Planning and Development Service of Kenton County shut down @circusmojo at the Ludlow Theatre. On the same day, as best offers were due for the Huntington Bank Parking Lot, the City of Ludlow—and the Chairman of the local zoning board—were competing with us to purchase. Eleven years ago, the first shots were fired. Most of the people responsible for this have resigned, been fired, or are no longer in office; a few might enjoy this clip. The fight is still going. The dialogue in this clip is an actual deposition from a lawsuit that is dragging on. We got creative. Bircus became the first SEC-registered, crowdfunded brewery—not just to build something fun, but to build something resilient in the face of pressure from City Hall and appointed zoning officials. We didn’t stop. We built anyway. We deliver and believe in restorative justice. Tune in for more. I am running for the Mayor of Ludlow, Kentucky, to expose the profound corruption and to tease if we live in a democracy or an aristocracy. #oneforall #millerformayor #circusmojo #bircus

✨️May 9th Performer Feature!!✨ Join us for pure adrenaline, beauty, strength, and grace with performers @hope.sophia_circus and @__rachgflows ! At just 5 years old, Hope began her journey in aerial silks at the Ludlow Theatre, and she now co-creates this unforgettable show alongside Rachel, the fire master. Hope has traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe teaching, performing, and inspiring others. The performance venue, Calina’s Corner, was once home to the original @bircusbeer Kitchen and artist housing, a true full-circle moment for Hope. She is now applying to circus schools in Spain and Italy! Additionnaly, Rach G also got her start working with Paul and Hope at @circusmojo ! She has now been an independent circus performer for 5+ years and specializes in fire dancing and aerial hoop! This is a show you don't want to miss! 🔥🔥🔥

Happy First of May! The circus industry is 8 years older than the USA. May 1st was the traditional start to the season when wagons (before trains) would head off to bring joy, distraction and wonder across the land, all fueled by concessions @bircusbeer Rookies are called First of Mays. Here’s @hope.sophia_circus who certainly isn’t a rookie preparing for a performance next saturday supporting @calinas_collectables Mothers Day eve on Elm St in Ludlow (at the old Circus Suites/Bircus Tap Room) �Come shop local and catch Hope before she heads off to Europe! #circus #shopludlow #firejuggling

What’s going on here? @circusmojo

Happy 254 Day from Nairobi Kenya… In this wide world we live in many place the day before the month. @punchlinecomedyclubnairobi welcomed me for some fun at @254beerdistrict ~ much gratitude! If you are going to tour East Africa on a Motorcycle or walk on a keg I highly recommend @edhenningsfootwork @circusmojo and Bircus are going global! Thanks to the SBDC and @cedkygov #oneforall #badboys #bircus #beer #STEPGRANT

One of my most patriotic moments: 11 years ago today at the US Embassy in Mexico City, hosting a Social Circus Symposium with some amazing practitioners. Finnish artists discussing circus youth development in Jordanian Refugee Camps. German counterparts sharing support for the Kibera Social Circus developed in the largest slum in Africa. Mexico City’s @injuvecdmxoficial explaining how using circus, breakdancing, web design, graffiti, etc. is a cost-effective way to keep teens engaged, focused, and out of trouble. I presented the @circusmojo vocational training program for youth in detention at the Hillcrest Training Center in Hamilton Co. (costing taxpayers $60k for each teen each year) Before her breakthrough on @agt a young @sofiedossi graced our stage! Special thank you to Sharon @shakingandshocking for co-producing, Jose Rosales for translating, and artists for making it happen! This festival was created in 2012 by Circus Mojo in Ludlow to recruit young talent to town and help connect young circus artists with training and performing opportunities. Our first festival hosted two young men @dedy_djoehaedi and @wawan_kks from Indonesia, and celebrated @cornell_freeney graduation from Illinois State University @gammaphicircus . This trip was funded in part by @uscommercialservice and the @cedkygov STEP Grant. #smartclowns vs #smartbombs #cdmx #socialcircus #paulitics

Nine years ago, shared on Facebook and by our Congressman @repthomasmassie Massie. We may not agree on all the issues; however, Thomas has the integrity to challenge the status quo and has helped with plenty of projects and issues on our behalf. “Ok, Paul Hallinan Miller, so this is one of the most amazing things I've ever witnessed in my congressional office! Thanks for posting this blast from the past. If only we could balance the budget as adeptly as you can balance... just about anything!” We started Bircus Brewing Co. to crowdfund beer and circus as a direct action against a corrupt system.… In 2009, when @circusmojo opened up in Ludlow, KY it was the lowest taxed municipality in Kenton County. For years now, it has been the highest taxed in our county. In 2025, I moved to Ludlow to run for Mayor, inspired by many like Thomas Massie and the One For All ethos of the Bircus Brewing Co. #oneforall #panemetcircenses #paulitics #millerformayor #thomasmassie

Happy World Circus Day @world_circus_day ! Come visit our friends at @2ndsightspirits . Wish the bartender @callie_budrick Happy World Circus Day and have a drink on us! The Founders/Owners of Second Sight, Rick and Carus, built props for @cirquedusoleil Viva Elvis and The Beatles Love, and, amazingly, the Still for their Bourbon Production. We collaborated on a Fire Breathing Ribbon Cutting a decade plus ago. Come visit @kytourism #worldcircusday #visitKY #bourbon #ludlowKY #firebreathing
