Fort Wayne, IN, January 19, 2018 – Fort Wayne’s newest and second largest craft brewery, Hop River Brewing Company, celebrates its Grand Opening on Saturday, Feb. 3rd from noon – 12:30AM. The brewery creates both traditional and thoughtfully innovative beers that encourage you to enjoy a second glass in its expansive beer hall with views of the brewing system.
The brewery opens its doors as a kid-friendly taproom and engaging brew house just north of the Riverfront development off the Wells Street Corridor and near Headwaters Park. Its journey began two years ago with co-owners Ben Jackson and Paris McFarthing wanting to share their passion for beer with the world and help cultivate the area’s growing craft beer scene.

The brewery offers their beer made onsite with tours of the brew house, as well as local beer and cider taps, and area wines. At the bar and community tables, beer lovers or experimenters can enjoy a pint or a flight of samples, while munching on seasonal snacks and sandwiches from the food menu with engaging views of the brewing process. As the Brewer, Kevin Debs, states, “Beer is beautiful and the point of being alive is sharing beautiful things. Enjoy what’s in your glass!”
