The History
Take 16 Brewing Company is located along the historic US Highway 16. Back in the early 1920s, this highway connected Detroit to Yellowstone National Park. The highway is now retired due to Interstate 90, but the old dirt roads are still used by locals. Take 16 is named after the historic highway and is also situated along it in downtown Luverne, Minnesota. While new to the Harvest Hosts program, they are not new to beer. Luke, the brewer, has been brewing beer since college and founded Heist Brewing before brewing for Take 16.
The Business Today

They keep ten beers on tap and one root beer, which is fun for the kids. Their brews have a good mix of light and dark beers to serve all palates. They even serve a Cöffee Kölsch, which is produced with local coffee from 4wrd Coffee.
