At Ellebone Brewing, we are more than just a brewery; we are a testament to the fusion of flavor, ingenuity, and brewing excellence. Using all locally malted grain (most of which was grown in or around Tennessee) and as many locally sourced ingredients as we can, helps us to elevate our flavors even further. Our Owner and Head Brewer, Cris Ellenbecker, has over 15 years of experience in the brewing industry and has done everything from packaging beer on a bottling line, working behind the scenes with regulatory approvals, and even growing yeast in a micro biology lab. That experience has led to us being able to grow our own unique blends of yeast. Having done all of this for other companies gave him the competitive edge to start his own brewery while still not stifling his creativity. In all this he still makes time to share his skill, dedication to the craft, and knowledge with his family, and involve them as much as they can stand. Even the name Ellebone comes from his daughters' nick names.
