Logboat Brewing Co

MADE IN THE USAIn the Spring of 2013 we broke ground at 504 Fay St and began renovating what was once a meat packing facility built in the 1960s. It sat vacant for over a decade and needed a lot of work, but with vision and a solid support system of friends and family, we began our journey and laid the foundation for Logboat Brewing Company.

During the exploration of equipment manufacturers to supply Logboat with our tanks, we wanted very badly to support an American company and continue to house only U.S. built products to this day. We were discouraged by the pricing associated with U.S. built stainless tanks until our head brewer, Josh Rein, mentioned Metalcraft Fabrication out of Portland, OR. Contacts were made, conversations were had, and before we knew it Tyson, Andrew, Judson, and Josh were on a plane to Portland to visit Metalcraft, meet with their team, design our brewhouse, and put a downpayment on what would become the single largest purchase in our lives.  We were lucky enough to be one of the last customers Metalcraft Fabrications supplied tanks to before they went out of business a couple of years later. Since then, we have acquired a few new tanks in the brewhouse from other U.S. companies out of Oregon and Wisconsin. Currently, we brew all of our beer on a 3 vessel, 30bbl brewhouse and currently have 10 fermentation tanks (2 - 30bbl FVs,  7 - 60bbl FVs and 1-120bbl FV) and 3 conditioning tanks (3 - 60bbl BBTs). On average, we are brewing 4 days a week and packaging about 200 barrels per week. We send out around 50 pallets of beer per week of draft and cans to 37 counties in MO.
