Dark Hills Brewery

...but a economic down turn and a world wide hops shortage will test the metal of even the most hardended Norseman. It’s been a difficult time for start up brewies, and Dark Hills in no exception.

...but they do know when to fall back and regroup. We’re retooling our business model to fit these new economic realites and revamping our website to better serve our future customers.

Our progress is not where we would like it to be.... Last September we had $335,000 pledged to start the brewery, but then the local land market crashed and took our investors with it. Back to square one.

By December we had a new, smaller plan and found a new

location, but then--did you hear about the world-wide hop shortage?

We will be unable to secure a hop contract until next January...maybe, after all the other breweries have their contracts fulfilled (350 are waiting in line--just at one hop store...). Back to square one.

We will still strive for our brewery, but we will take this year off to regroup. Congratulations are due

for our brewer, she is expecting her 3rd child this fall.

As soon as she is ready, we will begin again--at square one.

Thank you for your continued patience.
