Bring Craft Beer to Van Wert

Donation protected
The Beginning:

Like most tales of epic partnership and entrepreneurial spirit, this one begins in a garage. In the summer of 2016, Andrew Watkins began brewing mead, as a simple experimentation in zymurgy (the workings of fermentation). As friends and family tried his creations, he was inspired, along with his inventive cousin, to branch out into brewing beers. The experimentation snowballed, in the fashion of most great ideas, and along the way the Whiskey Wednesday Brew Club was born.

Each member brings something different to the creative efforts of what is now the High Five Brewing Company, but the vision for the future is unified. High Five Brewing Company aspires to be the go-to authority on local craft brews. Though several members of the Company branched out to different parts of the country, or served our country on other continents, they all found their way back to Van Wert.

It’s this location and their combined passion for high quality craft beer that created this business, and now they want to share that passion with the community, and you. Van Wert is on the cusp of another Golden Era, and they want to be a part of ushering it in. This business will unite beer connoisseurs and amteurs alike.

The Vision:

Though this business started in a garage, that’s certainly not where it will end. The Company aspires to own a commercial property, right here in Van Wert, where they will design, craft, and brew beer using locally owned and sourced ingredients. In this same property, they will sell the product to any who wish to indulge in a refreshing beverage.

Your Help:

This dream is 100% attainable, but would be far more so with your help. Not sure how you can help:

·         Share our Company Facebook page with anyone and everyone you can, even if they’re not from (or have ever even been to) Van Wert. https://facebook.com/highfivebrewingco/

·         Like our Company Facebook page, and invites others to do so too

·         Donate money to our Go Fund Me campaign. Though we have potential investors, we would love the help and support of our community, and any dollar amount is helpful and welcomed.

·         Visit us once we open. Stop by, hang out, have a cold one, and get to know each of us involved in what will soon become a local gem.

Donations will go toward the legal costs of starting a business, purchasing and upgrading equipment, obtaining supplies, and buying a building to house it all. 

Thank You:

We would like to thank everyone for their involvement! Whether you’ve been with us from the beginning, or are just now joining us on this journey, thank you! We could not be doing what we love without all of you! Van Wert is a great town, that is making a strong improvement, and we cannot wait to be a part of that!


(All rewards for donations will be given upon our opening, with our deepest gratitude)
