Crazy Gnome Brewery is a locally owned craft brewery in East Nashville behind Main Street Liquor. Owned by Grayson Miller who started brewing at the age of 20. 20? Yes! He discovered a loophole in some brewing regulations that allowed him to brew under the age of 21. His love of craft beer and brewing led him to open Crazy Gnome in August 2020.
Grayson and his team have a lot to celebrate! Crazy Gnome brewery survived an April 2020 Tornado that resulted in major damage to their building and equipment. Also they opened during the pandemic shut downs limiting operations. Craft beer fans in Nashville are happy they made it work and now are celebrating their two-year anniversary!
Family ties and a love of community help give Crazy Gnome its welcoming feel and comfortable atmosphere. Owner, Grayson moved to Nashville from Knoxville in 2014. Several years later his brother Bennett joined him at the brewery. Bennett is the brewery general manager. He also designed the brewery sign and crafted the flight paddles and tap handles. The brothers even have a table in the brewery made from a tree that fell in their parent’s yard.
"I have always loved the feeling of community Nashville has, I wanted to be a part of building that community." - Grayson Miller, Nashville Tennessean Article, March 5, 2020
These brothers have made Nashville their home and attached themselves to this community in a big way. Crazy Gnome is a place for excellent beer and hanging out with great people. Come with friends or visit with Grayson, his brother Bennett or their amazing crew serving up their 12 rotating taps weekly.
