There is a phrase that the Brewer’s Association has popularized among craft breweries—“Support Your Local Craft Brewery”.
If you’ve ever had the freshest of craft beers that can only come from a local brewery, you will definitely want to support your local craft brewery. In today’s marketplace, there is a great push toward shopping at your local mom and pop stores, using locally sourced products and eating locally grown foods. You might as well have locally brewed beer in your fridge.
At Piney River Brewing Company we really appreciate all of the friends old and new that have supported their local brewery by filling growlers, buying pints and hats in the past six months. We are so excited because this weekend, we have the opportunity to support another local craft brewery—Mother’s Brewing in Springfield. Owner and entrepreneur, Jeff Schrag, made the decision to start a brewery in Springfield around the same time we starting thinking about opening a microbrewery in the Ozarks that celebrates everything about the Ozarks. Like us, Jeff’s background is business, but he’s always enjoyed a distinctive beverage.
While Piney River Brewing Company is doing everything it can to become the little nanobrewery that could (become a bigger brewery), Mother’s Brewing is big from Day 1 operating on a 30 barrel system in a former bread factory. That’s a far cry from a barn down by the river!
Mother’s Brewing is getting ready to blitz Springfield with their beer as they become the local craft brewery of Springfield, MO. After having the opportunity to meet Jeff and some of his staff members , Piney River Brewing Company is going to be closed this weekend so we can attend the first ever Mother’s Festival.

We hope you are able to join us in welcoming another craft beer to the state of Missouri. Cheers!
