Our Story
The story of Swiftwater began with Andy Cook (owner / head brewer), and a tight-knit group of family and friends volunteering to help. Over time the Swiftwater team has grown to include neighbors, community members and patrons.
When visiting the brewery and tap room you’ll see the heart of Swiftwater in every detail. Kayaks tucked in the walls harkening back to Andy’s days as a whitewater kayak instructor. You’ll see the bar and tables were handmade of rich black walnut, milled from trees grown on Andy’s family’s farm.
Since opening in 2015, Swiftwater has gained a reputation for not only great beer, but also for a simple and well-executed menu of from-scratch food offerings. As a farm brewery, we are deeply committed to the local farming community by utilizing many fresh and seasonal ingredients whenever possible. We take pride in freshness, sustainability and overall quality in all things offered at the brewery.
Our overarching mission at Swiftwater is to create high quality, innovative beer while providing an atmosphere for our customers and colleagues that foster camaraderie and acceptance. We love our community and cannot thank it enough for the love we receive.
