Piney River Brewing

In November 2011, Piney River was the first microbrewery in the state of Missouri to can beer at the brewery! Missouri Mule IPA and McKinney Eddy Amber Ale were the first two types of cans and kegs that went out to area retail locations, and Joleen and Brian also began going out in public telling the Piney River story to anyone who was interested. Back in 2010 when Joleen and Brian told someone they were starting a brewery, they were asked, “Are you insane?” No, they aren’t insane; they’re just working hard, playing hard, and having the time of their life. Today you may find Joleen and Brian giving a brewery tour on a Saturday, pouring pints behind the bar, or meeting folks at the places that sell their beer. Their son, Andy, knows his way around the brewery, too, brewing up Andy’s Root Beer® for kids of the craft beer lovers that visit the farm.
