New brewery starts construction, debuts collaboration
April 4, 2019
Severance Brewing Co. has started to build out its downtown brewery.
It’s going into the first floor of The Cascade, the new mixed-use building that will include apartments on the upper floors across from Falls Park West.
The hope is to open in midsummer.
In the meantime, craft beer fans can get a taste of the Severance style this weekend thanks to a collaboration with Remedy Brewing Co.
The two teamed up to create a imperial honey saison that clocks in at 9 percent alcohol by volume. The beer was named Separation Therapy, which is a nod to the two breweries using synonyms of their company names, Severance and Remedy.
Two kegs of Separation Therapy also have been infused with chamomile tea, a unique combination that accentuates the honey flavor and will be available to try while supplies last.
The launch is from 7 to 10 p.m. Friday at Remedy, which is at 8th & Railroad Center. Event-goers will have the opportunity to help name one of the Severance fermenters, get some free Severance swag and learn more about the brewery.
“We couldn’t be more impressed by the collaborative spirit and welcome that we’ve received from the brewing community,” said Scott Heckel, CEO and head brewer of Severance Brewing.
“There have been a handful of great brewing collaborations across Sioux Falls lately, and it really goes to show that we can all help each other succeed. We’re extremely grateful to Remedy for sharing this opportunity with us and look forward to giving Sioux Falls a little preview of Severance.”
