About Us and Our Brewery

The concept of The Fallen Brewery was born out of co-owner Nathan Manese's military service with the 160th SOAR and the desire to pay respects to those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice. Our brewery has also been built to honor the men and women who serve our country and the communities we live in. It is a place for family, friends, and strangers to become friends. Our long, Viking style tables inside our brewery are designed to encourage conversation and to sit among people you may not know. The dream of this brewery began in 2013 and has been a passion project to bring it to fruition since 2018. Our brewery will focus on clean, classic style brews up front and work towards adding specialty brews as we grow. We won't sacrifice quality or consistency for the sake of having another brew on tap. If there is a beer temporarily off tap, please know we are perfecting it and refuse to serve any beer not up to our standards.

The brewery was founded by Nathand and Heather Manese and is currently operated by Nathan Manese. Nate had experience working as a volunteer firefighter before joining the military. He medically retired from the military in 2018 and immediately shifted focus to fulfilling his dream of opening the brewery. Nate began creating his own homebrew recipes over 12 years ago and has perfected them over time, to include our beloved FILO Hefeweizen that was inspired by Nate's service time in Germany. 

"We are proud that each of our beers has a special meaning and name behind it that reflects the importance of patriotism in our lives. We do what we do with the support from people like you. So let's raise our glasses, remember the fallen, and cheers to freedom. Every Day, We Remember."

Our goal is to support local by inviting food trucks to be with us on certain nights of the week. Please check our Food Truck Schedule link at the top of the page. While it may not be possible every week to have a food truck on site, guests are always welcome to bring in their own food or have food delivered to enjoy at the brewery. 

Our original business plan (first created in 2014) was founded on the premise of giving back to our Military and First Responder communities by donating a portion of proceeds to various hand picked organizations. As of today, we have given a portion of proceeds to the SGT Justin Norton Memorial Scholarship, Forgotten Coast K9, and supported fellow local small businesses and organizations. We have also proudly hosted events for the Montgomery County Veterans Coalition, Operation Stand Down TN, private military events, as well as Business After Hours for the Clarksville Area Chamber of Commerce and Networking at the Brewery with Clarksville Business Allies. We are proud sponsors of the Fort Campbell Hockey Team. 

Are you in need of a great location for your next event? We have ample space and seating to comfortably host your big event. We can take requests to reserve a small portion of seating or we can accommodate using our entire facility. We can host events on non-regular business days, assist in arranging for a food truck, or catering as well. Contact us for more details: TheFallenBrewery@yahoo.com
