About Us
Creating field to glass beers with custom malts and ingredients from family farms only minutes from our brewery.
Sit. Stay. Drink.
Enjoy the banks of the Missouri River in the historic Murphy, Neel & Co. mercantile built in 1880. We have entwined the area's rich history and modern agriculture into our brewery where each beer has a unique story of how it came to be, tying the past to the present.
Why the Tri?
The Golden Triangle is created by following Highway 87 from Great Falls through Fort Benton and on to Havre. Then west on Highway 2 to Shelby and back down Interstate 15 to complete the triangle.
This area is known for its rich agricultural history and modern production of barley, wheat and other grains - making it ideal for our brewery to create one-of-a-kind Golden Triangle beers for your enjoyment.
