Our History
Hobby Turns to Dream! For our owner and Master Brewer, homebrewing began in 1999, but occurred more frequently between 2009 and 2013. By 2013, the dream of opening a microbrewery was becoming a reality.
Shale Creek Brewing opened in historic, downtown Franklin in February 2016. Each of our 14 taps are Shale Creek beers brewed in-house on our 5 barrel system. Our restaurant opened in March 2018. In the spring/summer of 2022, Shale Creek Brewing added a beer trailer to serve beer during summer concerts at the amphitheater.
