Fat Bottom Brewing Company opened its doors in August of 2012, and as East Nashville’s first brewery, it quickly became a neighborhood favorite. New styles were introduced, distribution increased, and after packaging the beer into cans, it was time to start looking for a larger facility. An acre and a half of land at 800 44th Avenue North was purchased in 2015, and shortly after celebrating 4 years of business, the move from the East side to the West side began. From roughly 5000 square feet, to a brand new, state of the art, 33,000 square foot facility. When asked what the vision was for the project, owner Ben Bredesen answered with one word, “Quality”. This wasn’t about time or money, it’s a commitment to making the beer the best it can be.
