Our team is growing! We currently have a taproom located in a renovated 1930s service station and a 5200 sq.
foot production brewery, which is adjacent to the taproom.
With our 15 barrel system, we sell most of our brews through several distributors to over 400 locations.
We also have a 35 cans per minute canning machine which helps us more fully serve our region.
The premise of our brand is to develop a wide variety of bright beers with bold flavors that bring people with varying tastes together and build communities by prioritizing giving back.
Over the last 6 years, we have been able to raise over $70,000 while also creating awareness and support for local causes.
Additionally, while working within the craft of brewing, we focus on flavor over style definition, to excite the palate of a craft beer enthusiast as well as convert the domestic beer drinker.
