The first time Andrew Woodward handed me one of his beers, his brewery only existed on paper.
In June 2019, the 90-year-old barn at Oakholm Farm in Brookfield looked worn and dusty, an enclave for spiders, and had not yet transformed into Woodward’s handsome taproom. A broken concrete foundation occupied the spot where his 10-barrel brewhouse now sits. And instead of a beer garden, wild grass grew into the woods.
We stood under a tent, drinking beers from a trailer Woodward had rigged with taps and a cooler for kegs.
I visited the farm to write about the idea of Oakholm Brewing Co., the brewery Woodward founded with his friend Chris “Babe” Predella and Predella’s father, Rick, leaving impressed with their dream and tenacity. I told Woodward he would have an instant hit when they opened, and not just because of the location.
