Company profile

Brewery Finance company profile

Brewery Finance was started by Denver, Colorado homebrewers and craft beer lovers Rick and Skip Wehner. Before launching the company — the first equipment-funding company focused solely on America’s craft brewers — the brothers enjoyed careers with several industrial-equipment leasing companies in their home state. Along the way, the brothers dreamed of starting their own company and became fans of local micro-brewers and their thrilling, status-quo-defying creations. As his interest in craft beer grew, Rick sought a way to combine his work expertise with his love of small-batch beer and the rule breakers who made it. That dream became a reality in 2005 when Rick and Skip opened Brewery Finance. The company quickly became a valuable ally to fast-growing, visionary breweries unable to land equipment financing from traditional sources.
