Our Story
Let the River Carry You to Better Beer
Inspired by Southeast Georgia’s winding Ohoopee River, Ohoopee River Brewing Company bottles the easy‑going spirit of life on the water.
Founder Shane Harrelson, who fell for craft beer in the North Georgia Mountains, draws inspiration from the river’s calm currents and the tight‑knit “river people” who call its banks home. Every small‑batch brew celebrates that community—crisp IPAs and other styles crafted with local, organic ingredients—and our cypress‑and‑water logo honors the region we’re committed to protecting. As we grow beyond Georgia, we’ll carry the taste and soul of the Ohoopee everywhere, always staying true to the river that started it all.
