Drink Beer Til the End®

Welcome to our brewery located in Louisville, Kentucky. Our brewery and Taproom, “the Fallout Shelter” opened in May of 2012, producing beer for the masses and your survival.

Our passion is in creating small-batch, fresh craft beer. We support sustainability with our solar-heated water, grain reuse, material recycling and the re-use of found objects and equipment used to build our brewery.

With a combined total of over 40 years of homebrewing experience, our local, regional and nationally winning brewers are excited to be a part of Louisville’s great craft beer scene and brewing tradition.

Tap at brewpub. Candy like sugary strawberry aroma. Hazy golden with small white head. Tart light berry and yeast flavor with a light bitter finish. Light fizzy body. Brewer told us they brewed this with sorghum and buckwheat, so I was surprised I couldn’t taste the sorghum. Although this doesn’t taste like beer, it’s still a nice summery gluten free alternative. I’ve had a lot worse.
