Big Hole Brewing is excited to announce today that our Headstrong Montana Pale Ale and Mythical White Grand Reserve ales are now available to beer enthusiasts in 16oz aluminum cans in specialty beer retailers in Kalispell, Missoula, Butte, Wisdom,
Bozeman and Big Sky, Montana.

Big Hole Brewing was founded in 1996 and began brewing that same year in Belgrade, Montana. The brewery was named in recognition and honor of the Big Hole Valley, one of Montana’s pristine wilderness regions with some of the most breathtaking scenery in the State.

Over the years, Big Hole Brewing has worked to educate and excite local craft beer enthusiasts. In May 1997 Big Hole Brewing hosted one of the first known Trappist beer tastings in America at our brewery then located in Belgrade. Twenty years ago the beer scene was really just developing and it was extremely difficult to locate all of the Trappist (beer brewed at a Monastery, under the supervision of the Monks) and Big Hole Brewing took the lead in educating local retail and beer enthusiasts on these extremely rare beers.

Founder Jeff Dafoe states,
“We’ve recognized for a long time that Montanans really enjoy their favorite craft beer from the convenience of a can. We’ve worked over the last few years to find a brilliant solution to offer our beers in a format that provides the best packaging ensuring beer quality, quick chilling and easy handling for either the back-yard or the back-country experience. To meet this end, we have partnered with the brewing artisans at Outlaw Brewing in Bozeman to work with us to brew our world class ales and package these onsite with their new craft beer canning line.”
