Harding House Brewing Co.’s Origin Story

All breweries have stories behind how they got started, and we are no different. Our founders’ passion for local beer and sustainable business practices helped give birth to Harding House Brewing Co.

The story behind this local brewery

Our brewmaster, Nate Underwood, began homebrewing after college in 2012, quickly blending his love for local agriculture with his brewing style. He teamed up with Cameron, Matt, and Tyler to launch Harding House Brewing Co., a hyper-local brewery based in The Nations neighborhood of Nashville. Our taproom operated for five years, and while we closed it in 2024, we’re still proudly distributing our beer throughout Tennessee and beyond. Stay tuned for updates!

The Name: Harding House Brewing Co.

Our name traces its roots back to the nickname given to a house on Harding Place here in Nashville where Nate lived after graduating from college. It is also the place where the inspiration for this brewery originated. Throughout the development process of the brewery, many things changed, but the name remained constant. To the people now involved with Harding House Brewing Co., the name represents more than a single location on a map or a single group of individuals. It represents a growing community seeking to affirm the good things in life over a pint.
