Buchanan brewery aims to reopen Buchanan County history with Allerton name
Independence locals Gray and Mikel plan Allerton Brewing Co to open in Independence, first Buchanan County brewery since 1920, borrowing inspiration from a late 1800s racing era. Five core beers plus rotating offerings, outdoor deck by the Wapsipinicon River, and an 1871 brick wall feature. State capacity limits and COVID-19 affect opening timing and grand launch. A Buchanan County Economic Development loan, with a six month grace period, supports the venture during partial openings.
