LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The beer brewing business is booming in the Bluegrass!
A new Kentucky-based brewery is celebrating its grand opening in the Highlands on Friday -- Pivot Brewing.
Located at 1753 Bardstown Road, the solar-powered cidery and micro-brewery first opened in Lexington. Now, its expanding to Louisville, which is the founder's hometown.
Even the name Pivot is personal.
"It's a homage to our founder's grandma who was a 'Rosie the Riveter' during World War 2," Martin Swab, with Pivot, said. "It's about coming together as a team, that moxy, and our big mission -- if you will -- is about having our doors open to community, working with local non-profits, and having a place where people can come and gather."
