Our Story - Totally Fresh, Still Fernson

Our mission has always been about bringing people together. Totally Rad Pizza is your new go to restaurant for pizza, wings, and pinball. Adding pizza to the Fernson lineup was an easy decision for us. We are so excited for this new concept to bring folks together over a hot pie and a cold drink.

Beau said it best “We take what we do seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously.”

For as long as we’ve made beer, we’ve cared about the stories that surround it. There’s that one about your trip to Germany, the one about how IPA’s came to be, or the one your dad always tells that probably isn’t true. Despite the wide open spaces on the Great Plains, we create beer that brings folks closer. Humbly made with people in mind. Proudly brewed in South Dakota.
