Discover the brewing history of Junction City!

The boom of commercial beer in Utah began in Ogden with the emergence of Becker Brewing in 1892. Even in a state that was not known for consuming alcohol, the brewery thrived until the 1960s. The Beckers made great beer, but, more importantly, set a brewing standard for the area. Roosters Brewing Company continued that legacy (with multiple locations), and newcomers Talisman Brewing Company, UTOG Brewing Company, Zolupez Beer Company, and Ogden River Brewing are making their mark.

Suggested beers when visiting: Hazards IIIPA (Talisman) and Union Station Amber Ale (Ogden River).
