Our Story

Kevin Antoon, Jamie Lee, and Jared Welch met in the corporate world. Their weekends spent homebrewing quickly evolved when they shed their business attire and decided to go all in–opening a 430 square foot brewery in East Nashville with a modest seating area. The doors opened in February of 2016 staffed by the three founders and their wives.

Beginnings

Year one was a roller coaster as we dialed in the brewing system, built out our taproom, and simply tried to keep up with growing demand. Within a year, we started looking for a larger space to brew and serve our beer.

Growth

On our Two Year Anniversary, we opened our second taproom and 9,900 square foot production space in The Nations neighborhood, allowing for a massive production increase in just two years.
