A Celebration of 14 Years of Craft Beer in the Ozarks

From the bottom of our pint glasses--Thank you for celebrating with us! We couldn't have asked for better weather for the 14th Aleiversary if we tried. January and February had stupid cold days and wet, nasty weekends (except for one). The wind would not stop blowing in March. I'm not talking about breeze. I'm talking about 35-40 MPH wind where your hair always looks like you are riding motorcycle without a helmet. Major tornadoes went North and South of the Piney River Farm the weekend before the Aleiversary. When March 22nd dawned, the wind laid, the sun came out, the…

It Takes A Mule Team Beer EventsThe BARnThe Beer

It Takes A Mule Team

In 2014 we celebrated the 3rd Aleiversary at Piney River Brewing Co. with a special release imperial IPA that we called "Mule Team" paying homage to our Missouri Mule IPA and the team of people that it takes to make a packaging microbrewery on a Farm in the Ozarks work. Craft beer changes led us to stop making Mule Team after the 8th Aleiversary in 2019. The beer is very expensive to make due to the large amount of malt and hops, and by 2019 a lot of breweries had IPAs, imperial IPAs, hazy IPAs, you name it. There wasn't…

The Best Aleiversary Line Up EVER Beer Events

The Best Aleiversary Line Up EVER

It's really hard to believe that nine years ago we opened the red door on the BARn and invited anyone that was interested to come try some beer that Brian and I brewed on our Sabco Brew Magic.  Andy was a four-year old.  We had our first dog, Sam, and our first cats, Barney and Pumpkin.  The girlfriends were all pretty young. Fast forward nine years--Andy's got his own Root Beer line! We've got our second dog, Annie, and two more cats, Skylar and BC.  Some of the girlfriends' babies are raising their own young on the Farm these days.…

Missouri Mule Kicked the Green Can Down the Road The Beer

Missouri Mule Kicked the Green Can Down the Road

We recently poured beer at West Plains Beerfest, and we had a few people come up to our tub of craft can goodness, and say, "I like the one in the green can." Actually, people have been saying that they like the one in the green can since November 2011 when Missouri Mule IPA was the second beer we ever canned on the Piney River Farm.  We are still proud to the be first craft brewery in Missouri to put an IPA in a can because we love hops! The green Missouri Mule IPA can was kicked down the road…

Honey, I Shrunk the Piney River Cans The Beer

Honey, I Shrunk the Piney River Cans

Today was a cloudy, rainy day on the Piney River Farm; not too different from the cloudy, rainy night in 2011 when Piney River first canned craft beer in the Ozarks. Today’s first--12 ounce Piney River cans. Those of us that have been canning beer on the Farm are still trying to adjust to these smaller cans in our hands, but we’re doing what many of our consumers and our distributors have asked us to do by putting our beer in a smaller can. Waaay back in 2011 when Piney River was the first microbrewery in the state to can beer…
