Side Project was one of 20 breweries across the United States to make it into the voting round, and fans voted in an online poll to help the award-winning St. Louis brewery claim a spot among the “10 Best.”
“Earning a spot among the top beer bars in the country is an incredible honor,” says Cory King, co-owner of Side Project Brewing. “Our team puts so much care into every aspect of what we do—from our barrel-aging program to our curated beer experiences to our new food programs at Side Project Pizza and The Brewery led by Chef Adam Altnether. It’s rewarding to see that passion recognized on a national level. We’re grateful for the craft beer community that has embraced us, and we look forward to continuing to create unique and memorable beers for everyone who walks through our doors.”
Founded in 2013, Side Project Brewing started as a passion project and has grown into a staple of the St. Louis craft beer scene. Known for their dedication to barrel-aging, the Side Project team has built a reputation for producing some of the most sought-after saisons, wild ales, and stouts in the country. With a commitment to quality, creativity, and the community, Side Project has become a go-to destination for beer lovers in St. Louis and beyond.
