Side Project Brewing

Get Me Here Using Metro Transit

SIDE PROJECT BREWING is the newest addition to the City of Maplewood’s Green Dining District restaurants and bars. Side Project is a brewery and tasting room located near the intersection of Manchester and Big Bend where you can grab a beer on tap or to-go. They add to the City of Maplewood’s efforts to decrease the environmental impact of their businesses.

While Side Project Brewing does not have the perk of composting on-site through Total Organics’ services offered by the City of Maplewood, they reduce their organic waste through other means. For instance, the brewery gives its used grains to a local farmer to be used as feed for its animals. This reduces the impact of the brewing process by giving another life to the brewing waste. They also work to reduce their waste in other ways. The old barrels are sold for those who want to use them for home décor or event decorations.

In addition, Side Project Brewing makes it their mission to be involved in the community. They donate to animal rescue shelters, Friends of Kids with Cancer, and more. Side Project recently hit the lifetime goal of donating over $100K to Friends of Kids with Cancer. 

During your visit to Maplewood, grab a pint from Side Project Brewing and let them know the GDA sent you!
