The sound of a battle horn was used by Vikings to indicate the start of a battle or to summon people to gather and fight. The blowing of the horn would also denote the end of a battle and a time to rejoice. Battle Horn Brewing is a call to gather together, enjoy great beer and revel at the start of something new or to praise a victory. Everyone has their own battle.

Head brewer Dan O'Donnell’s passion for brewing began in the most unassuming of places: his own home. With an open flame and a modest 10-gallon pot, Dan would brew wherever he could—whether it was the laundry room, the garage, or even in the driveway. It wasn’t about the location; it was about the process. Those early days were marked by countless hours spent experimenting, mixing, and matching hops and grains, driven by a deepening love for the art of brewing.

As Dan’s skills grew, so did his ambitions. What started as a hobby quickly became a relentless pursuit of perfection. With each passing year, he invested in more advanced equipment, transforming his brewing setup from a simple operation into a more sophisticated, electric, software-controlled system. This upgrade allowed Dan to replicate his best batches with precision, ensuring that each brew was as ``killer`` as the last.

But Dan wasn’t satisfied with just consistency; he wanted innovation. He began to delve deeper into the nuances of brewing, paying meticulous attention to every detail. He extensively tested different hop varieties and sought out the finest local ingredients, pushing the boundaries of flavor and quality. His dedication to craft and precision started to garner attention from fellow beer enthusiasts and local connoisseurs alike.

In 2019, after years of honing his craft, Dan decided to take the leap from home brewing to launching his own brewery—Battle Horn Brewing. What began as a hobby had blossomed into a full-fledged business, built on a foundation of passion, attention to detail, and a commitment to quality. From those early days brewing with an open flame in the driveway, Dan’s journey has been one of constant learning and innovation, culminating in a brewery that is as much about the craft as it is about the community it serves.

Battle Horn Brewing is not just a place to enjoy great beer; it’s the embodiment of Dan’s journey—a testament to the idea that with dedication, even the most humble beginnings can lead to extraordinary results.
