In the next three years (1998-2000), he played junior hockey for the Bay State Breakers of the USPHL, led by David McCauley. In his freshman year of high school, Brad played on the varsity at Cohasset H.S., outside of Boston. Coming up through grade school, he played for a number of local clubs in central Connecticut including Avon Youth Hockey. Customers are encouraged to ask about the rum passport, which earns them various prizes as they try all the different rums available.Growing up in Hartford, CT, Brad began playing ice hockey at the age of 5. After the move, Mutiny will be located at 33 Magothy Beach Road in Pasadena.

Mutiny Pirate Bar & Island Grille is currently located at 1653 Marley Avenue in Glen Burnie, and is open 11:00am-10:00pm Sunday, 4:00pm-10:00pm Monday through Wednesday, 4:00pm-11:00pm Thursday, 3:30pm-midnight Friday and noon to midnight Saturday. They are also already scouting a third location with the hope of eventually growing to 10 locations, possibly at a pace of two per year. The partners plan to open a second location in Elkridge sometime in the fall. This move to Pasadena isn’t the only adventure Mutiny Pirate Bar is undertaking this year. “Everyone is really excited about it, which was a huge win for us because what makes us awesome, we think, is our staff,” said Hynson, giving credit to managers Brian Betz and Dave Williams for their work in leading the team. The plan is to be open by Labor Day, and all employees have said they plan to stay onboard. “That’s been the biggest challenge - making sure it’s true to the theme.” “We’ve worked very hard to make it look old, even though it’s a brand-new building,” Rob Wecker said, emphasizing that the décor will make patrons feel as if they’re sitting below the deck of a ship, hanging out with pirates, rather than sitting in a restaurant in the middle of a strip mall. The biggest challenge, however, to being in a newer, modern facility has been making the place look, well, not new and modern.


This includes a redesign of the kitchen to make it more functional for Mutiny’s entirely from-scratch menu, and the installation of a bar for serving an extensive range of craft beer, craft cocktails and, of course, 120 different types of rum. The partners are currently in the process of renovating the space to suit their needs. “We’ll miss Point Pleasant and we’ll miss this building - it’s been our home for six years - but there are a lot of upsides as well,” said Marziole. Their current location sits tucked back in the Point Pleasant community far off the main roads in Glen Burnie, and although the 100-year-old building has an antiquated charm to it, some of its amenities are outdated and space for parking is limited. “It’s 5 miles away, so the idea is we’ll still be accessible to the people who already love us, and we’ll make some newer friends over there as well,” Hynson said. The move from Glen Burnie, where Mutiny has operated since 2011, promises immense benefits that will allow the five partners in the business - brothers Rob and Steve Wecker, along with Nate Hynson, Lee Marziole and Tom Balsamo - to serve their regulars better and bring in some new customers to boot. And even if adventuring on the seven seas isn’t a practical option for most Pasadenians, they can still drink like a pirate while staying close to home.Īnd maybe even closer to home than they might think, now that Mutiny Pirate Bar & Island Grille is coming to Magothy Beach Plaza and taking over the space previously occupied by The BBQ Joint. They sail, they hunt for treasure and - most importantly - they like rum.
