Nearly a decade later, Barrique Brewing and Blending is preparing to say goodbye to the community. With a social media post, the brewery announced that its tasting room at 30 Oldham Street will close on Saturday, March 28.
The craft beer company was founded by Joel Stickrod and is focused on creating wood-aged and mixed culture beers.
Barrique Announces Final Days at Oldham Street
Barrique Brewing and Blending is a local favorite and is known for its slow, traditional approach to brewing. Located in Nashville, Tennessee, the brewery focuses on producing barrel-aged wild ales and crisp Czech-style lagers.
The brewery offers an extensive selection of carefully crafted beers, like Solene, Tennespon Traditionelle, Vitis Concord, and many more.
Nashville-based Barrique Brewing’s Oldham Street tasting room is set to close to the public after March 28, 2026.
Through a social media post, Joel Stickrod, the owner of the brewery, said, “Come join me in the tasting room at 30 Oldham St before Saturday, March 28th, as that will be the last day it is open to the public in this location.”
In the post, he explained that the decision to close the tasting room comes as the building is expected to be removed in 2026.
“I made the difficult decision to pause new production after December. That decision allowed me to focus on blending and packaging the final sonnet of barrel-aged wild beer from this building while reconnecting with many of you across the bar,” said Stickrod.
The beers take time to mature, but the brewery believes they could be among its best work yet.
About the Brewery
The brewery was founded in 2017 by Joel Stickrod as a simple idea-driven project. The concept was inspired by traditional European brewing methods.
The name of the brewery, “Barrique,” comes from the French word meaning “small oak barrel,” which is commonly used in winemaking.
In 2020, the brewery moved into the Oldham Street location. Even though the tasting room operations are closing, its core beer, Haus Pils, will be available in stores.
Stickrod extended a heartfelt note of appreciation to the community for its support. In the post he wrote, “Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the support during this second chapter of Barrique. I hope to see you again in the future.”
As the brewery winds down its operations, Barrique Brewing and Blending is filled with gratitude for its staff and loyal customers. While this chapter is ending, Barrique has assured that its work and its passion for brewing are not finished.
