To all of our friends out there, Goldenrod Brewing Company will be changing our name soon.

The Golden Road Brewery in L.A. has decided the name “Goldenrod”, based on our Nebraska state flower, is too similar to the name Golden Road and has requested that we cease use of the name. Litigation to keep the Goldenrod name would not be in our best financial interest as a small start up business, so we have decided to move on.

We will keep you all posted as we get close to picking a new name and hope to continue on our current schedule and open early next year. We thank all of you for your support so far and apparently all of you with Goldenrod shirts now have a collector’s item.
