The Business of Craft Beer
The Springfield Business Journal wrote a pretty in-depth article on the state of Craft Beer in central Illinois and across the county, definitely a good read!
We were interviewed along with other local breweries and brew pubs, check it out!

March came in like a lion
Wow, it’s been a busy month! We had our soft open starting March 2nd and since then, even though we’ve only been open Fridays & Saturdays, the response has been amazing. We are humbled and can’t thank you all enough for your support.
This has truly been a fantastic start for our brewery and tap room.
In addition, we were lucky enough to have some pretty fabulous private functions throughout the month including fund raisers for Tim Butler & Kelly Cassidy, the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild craft beer tasting, a primary party for JB Pritzker, and oh yeah there was this little holiday called St. Patricks Day, ha!
Check out the gallery above for highlights from the month, enjoy!
Ringing in the New Year
We rang in the New Year with a party and made our first sales at the tap room! It was a great night and a great start to a new year. We can’t wait to get everything wrapped up and be able to open regularly to the public. Happy new year, see you soon!
Better late than never!
Heya everyone! Thanks for being patient with us, we’ve been quiet lately because we’ve been hard at work trying to get everything finished so we can open and get you all a beer! Right now we are looking at a late January opening. See you soon!
PS – enjoy some pics of all the hard work
