Beer From
Another World

Small-batch craft brews engineered with otherworldly ingredients and abducted by hop lovers across the galaxy. Come taste what landed.

Our Origin Story

Brewed in Orbit, Poured on Earth

Hop Notch Brewing started when a few homebrewers swore they saw something strange streak across the Ohio sky — and decided their beer should taste just as out-of-this-world. What began in a garage is now a full-fledged brewing operation with a cult following.

Every batch is crafted in small runs using locally-sourced grain, wild yeast, and a healthy obsession with experimentation. No two landings taste quite the same.
