TailGate Brewery Celebrates 11 Years in Tennessee

WHAT: Tennessee’s craft brewery TailGate Brewery is celebrating 11 years with great beer and made-from-scratch pizza on Feb. 21! Join us for a specialty food and beverage menu, a vintage market, and more at TailGate Brewery Headquarters in Nashville. 

TailGate’s recently perfected lager experience Lager Projekt will be the star of the show, with more than 10 varieties appearing on tap exclusively for the anniversary. First poured at TailGate and at restaurants across Tennessee in late 2025, Lager Projekt was born from an ongoing R&D series of meticulously crafted lagers also titled Lager Projekt. Each beer is brewed with traditional hops, clean malt bills, and region-specific water profiles, adhering as closely as possible to Germany’s Reinheitsgebot purity laws.

WIth eight taprooms and an airport outpost at BNA, TailGate has grown over the past 11 years to become a staple in the Tennessee food and beverage community. TailGate proudly offers industry-leading benefits including 100% paid healthcare for its more than 250 team members across the state. Every pint of TailGate’s Tennessee-made beer, including Wizards Order IPA, the gold medal award-winning TailGate Orange, and Lager Projekt, supports the brewery's commitment to quality, community, and its people. 

Founded and solely owned by Wesley Keegan, TailGate has earned a shining reputation as a destination for locals and tourists alike, with a diverse beverage lineup that includes more than 300+ craft beer styles brewed every year as well as non-beer craft beverages like TailGate Cider, THC seltzers, Coolship Cold Brew, a full coffee menu, and more. Paired with a made-from-scratch pizza as inventive as its beverage program, TailGate Brewery offers something for everyone.
