ABOUT LIFE IS BREWING
Life is Brewing is a team of skilled hyper gregarious beer professionals that own Mantra Artisan Ales, Steel Barrel Brewing Co, and Hop Springs Farm. We are expanding with a new brewery in Murfreesboro TN and a brewpub in Nashville TN. We currently operate an existing location in Franklin TN. Life is brewing has expanded at a 300% clip each year from its inception with continued expected growth for the next 3 years.
Steel Barrel Brewing Co is a new 60 bbl fully automated 5 vessel brewery that broke ground in the spring of 2017 with an estimated date of completion in June. The new facility is the largest craft brewery in the state of Tennessee.
Mantra Artisan Ales is a collaboration with COO Derrick Morse and Celebrity Chef Maneet Chauhan. We are focused on flavor and the culinary aspect of brewing. With beers like, Saffron IPA, Japa (a milk chai stout), and Cassis (a whiskey barrel-aged Flanders style red on tart cherries and black currant). Mantra is focused on brewing with unique ingredients to develop full flavored brews. Most of Mantra’s clean beer production will be moved to Steel Barrel’s facility with all the spontaneous and wild beers being produced in Franklin.
Garret Oliver had this to say about our Saffron IPA in the February edition of All About Beer:
“The nose is a riot—sweet oranges, limey hops, warm saffron and then cardamom, a notoriously difficult spice to dial in, floating serenely over the whole affair. The bitterness comes off sharp at the outset but soon settles in, supported by generous malts. The finish is brusque but not unpleasant. This is a really fun beer, and I’d love to try it with Goan curried crab cakes.”
Hop Springs is an 84 acre farm that will have a 20 acre hop field, 9 hole disc golf course, amphitheater, taproom, orchard, mountain bike trail, wedding venue, cabins, and of course a brewery.
The brewpub is slated to open early 2019, and is located in the heart of Germantown, Nashville TN.
