E-Malt.com News article: USA, MT: Bowser Brewing Company to open in Great Falls

An old Great Falls building is getting a new look, as the Bowser Brewing Company is moving in and hopes to brew up some success with a unique twist on a frothy favourite, Krtv.com reported on November, 25.

What started as a home brewing operation and a passion for creativity is now turning into full time business for the Bowser family.

Owner Evan Bowser said, "It's just a passion that we had that grew and grew."

The new brewery will occupy the old Sting, but getting the OK to brew was no small feat.

A brewery hasn't called Great Falls home since the 1960's.

"It's totally something different that Great Falls doesn't have yet. We are looking for something different to kind of spark the nightlife," said Bowser.

Bowser grows his own hops, but what really sets the company apart are the unique brew concoctions.

"I brewed two beers," Bowser explained, "A chocolate stout and a strawberry ale and then I did black and tans with them, mixed them together half and half and it tasted like a chocolate covered strawberry. It was a huge hit."

Bowser will also be brewing up a jalapeno beer and another using prickly pear juice.

"Every time you come to our tap room it's going to be something different," said Bowser.

Bowser Brewing plans to open its doors in mid December.
