About

The Barbarian Way

“Why the f**k not?”

 That’s our motto around here. Ancient barbarians never bothered with pesky concepts like rules or limits, and neither do we. If we (or our customers) come up with a completely bonkers idea, we’re all in.

 The coolest part of our brewery is that we can do whatever we want. All it takes are a few untamed minds, a little elbow grease … and maybe a few pints of beer. When you give civilization the finger, true innovation happens. Barbarian’s delicious, complex, artisan ales and lagers are a godless mashup of old world traditions and new world flavors.
