The Core of Arkansas Brewery Taproom will host its Grand Opening on April 5th at 6 PM. The beer will be flowing in full force and you’re invited. The Brewery has had a lot of awesome renovations, and quickly. With almost three weeks until to the Grand Opening, we can’t begin to describe how pumped we are to have everyone back at the brewery.

The official day to day hours for the taproom is still up in the air, however, we will be opening the doors at the brewery on April 5th at 3 PM. The Grand Opening party will last as long as people are still asking for beer, so come try to drink us dry, we dare you. That being said, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay at the brewery past 2 AM.

Mark your calendars folks, you’re not going to want to miss this.

The business of craft beer is a dynamic one, where times change frequently. Everyone works hard to adjust and roll with the flow as best as possible. Growth is a tremendous testament to those who have graciously supported us over the years, but each evolution does come with growing pains. Even the best journeys come to an end. Therefore, it’s very bittersweet to announce that February 28^th will effectively be the final business day for our Mall Avenue (West Fayetteville), Pinnacle (Rogers), and Downtown Bentonville Pubs, and March 31^st will be the final business day for our Emma Pub (Downtown Springdale).

Our experiences at these locations have been challenging, but nothing short of incredibly rewarding as well. It truly has been an honor to become intertwined into the fabric of these communities, and we hope that we were able to provide you with enjoyable experiences. We certainly have memories that will last a lifetime.

At the end of the day, as with all independent craft breweries, our brewery is not only the beating heart of our organization, but home. When we started our journey in the summer of 2010, the mission was simple: to brew premium craft beer that Arkansans could truly Take Pride in, a mission that will never change. But while we’ve been incredibly blessed to be able to flex our wings, we realized a simple truth. We are brewers and beer lovers at heart, and it’s time to come home!

We’re beyond thrilled to be able to return to our roots. Brewing beer we can stake our lives on isn’t just a passion, but a mindset, a lifestyle, and a purpose that deserves our undivided attention. Mostly, we miss being able to showcase our home to you, so effective April 5, we will restore our Brewery Tap Room to newfound glory.

To our supporters at our Mission (East Fayetteville), Fort Smith, SoMa (Little Rock), and Hot Springs Pubs, we’re thrilled to continue our journey with you and will continue to challenge ourselves to be the best we can. To those in Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers, and Bentonville, we will never be more than a stone’s throw away. Make sure to swing by our Brewery Tap Room when we’re up and running, because you might just find your new favorite spot. Trust us, nothing beats beer straight from the source.

We heard you, and we’re finally coming home.
