Country Boy Brewing
Country Boy Brewing opened in February 2012. We brew fresh, minimally processed beers using high-quality ingredients. We source local fruits, vegetables, and hops when available.
Stop in the taproom to try one of our staples, like Cougar Bait Blonde, Cliff Jumper IPA, or Shotgun Wedding Vanilla Brown Ale. Find our beer on tap at your favorite spot across Kentucky, Indiana, and West Virginia!
The brewery and taproom are located at 436 Chair Ave, near Rupp Arena and UK’s campus.
