Brewery in Planning: Stewbum & Stonewall Brewing Co.

It’s been a little over a year since startup brewery Stewbum & Stonewall burst onto the scene in Hawaii with a massively successful Kickstarter campaign. They raised a ton of money (for Kickstarter standards) and since then they’ve been relatively quiet.

Brewery co-founder, Darren Garvey, spent months looking for a location in the greater Honolulu area but kept coming up short. The perfect location kept alluding him and his search, so Garvey decided to look towards Honolulu’s outskirts for a space that would allow him to get the brewery running and selling beer.

Garvey found a small industrial building in Kaneohe a few months ago and is now close to brewing his first batch. Although not his ideal location, Garvey is happy to have found a home (even if it’s only temporary) and has hopes of selling his first keg this Spring.
