Kochendorfer Brewing Company Officially Open for Business
A much anticipated — and first of its kind to the area — business officially opened its doors Saturday at 1 p.m. with a grand opening celebration.
Kochendorfer Brewing Company, which hosted a VIP event for family and friends Friday, celebrated its grand opening with Duncan Area Economic Development Foundation (DAEDF) and the Duncan Chamber of Commerce.
Chris Kochendorfer, who owns the brewery with his wife, Laura, and Kathryn and Lenny Cripps, welcomed the audience to the new facility, which features an outdoor patio sporting heaters and playground equipment as well as walking trails, and of course, the tap room.
“We feel that we have a great product,” Chris Kochendorfer said. “We’re ready for you to experience what we’ve been doing the last year. Welcome and thank you for this opportunity to have everybody here. We are really excited to have you guys and show the community what we believe is going to be a great gathering place for everybody to enjoy themselves.”
Lyle Roggow, President and CEO for DAEDF, said the brewery will serve as a community connecting point.
