Hairy Cow Brewing Company Box Elder Edition!

Hi everyone this is Todd McLester, owner of Hairy Cow Brewing Company coming to you today from Box Elder, SD. For those of you not familiar with the area about a mile behind me is Interstate 90, a few miles down the road Box Elder boarders Rapid City, SD. Of course you can see in the background, the Black Hills. It’s a beautiful area. I’m here today to talk to you about a project I’ve been working on for about the last year. This piece of property I’m standing on right here is 7 acres of prime real estate just outside the main entrance of Ellsworth Air Force Base. This will be the new home of Hairy Cow Brewing Company, “Box Elder Edition”. We’re really excited about this! I will keep everyone up to date on our Facebook Page, Instagram Page, and of course right here on our website hairycowbrewing.com. Please check those out. Like them, and share them! We’re excited to be a part of this community. I want to thank Box Elder city officials and Ellsworth Air Force Base officials for welcoming us to the area. We’re really excited to be a part of what’s going on out here. There’s tons of construction and people are flocking out here in droves! It’s just a neat place to be right now. There’s a lot of activity and we’re excited to be a part of it. We’ll talk to you soon and keep you up to date online.

Sláinte!

TAPROOM RE-OPENING JUNE 26TH!

Thank you to everyone who has visited HCB since we began serving on our covered patio and in the beer garden. The past few weekends have been a blast and, I am happy to report, we plan to start seating/serving in the taproom again next Friday, June 26th! Thursday we will be open for outdoor seating 11am-9pm. Friday and Saturday we will open the taproom from 11am-10pm, and Sunday from 11am-8pm. We plan to maintain the Thursday through Sunday schedule, as well as the modified menu, for at least the next few weeks. It has been wonderful seeing many of our friends as well as a lot of new faces. We look forward to a great summer!

Welcome to Hairy Cow Brewing Company

Welcome to the Hairy Cow Brewing Company website. Our taproom is currently closed due to the pandemic, but we plan to open to curbside beer sales soon.

We opened our doors December 18, 2018 to overwhelming support from the Byron community, foodies, and craft beer aficionados. The past sixteen months has been quite the learning experience for all of us at HCB. Your input has been greatly appreciated and we have attempted to put many of your suggestions and comments to use. We want Hairy Cow to be your ‘place’ to gather, relax, and celebrate. You have given us several ideas for events, menu items, beers, and facility accommodations. 

Prior to the closure March 16, we were in the process of covering our back deck and installing the boat dock. We hope to complete both projects yet this spring.

We will also have new beers upon reopening. Jon has been working on several recipes including a crisp, refreshing Helles and a slightly higher octane Maibock. Those, along with our core offerings, will be available for carryout soon. Please watch our social media pages for details.

Thank you for your support! We look forward to a fantastic summer.

See you soon,

Todd
