About Us

Located at 216 South Michigan Street, South Bend, IN, SB Brew Werks offers homebrewing and winemaking supplies and equipment to help you make and drink your own beer, wine, and soda at home.

Manager Alec Sanderson aka “Captain Brew”, a true Zymurgist, has extensive experience with homebrewing both beer and wine as well as brewing on a commercial level. He’s now a certified BJCP judge AND a level 1 Cicerone.  Who else would engage in the art of wine making to produce a refreshing beverage to celebrate his wedding with?

Richard Hall aka “Daddy Warbucks” has been brewing for the past couple of years and knows his stuff. He’s a Chemistry major at IUSB and has a great knowledge base on the technical side.  With a warm sense of humor and dizzying intellect, Rich can help take your brew to the next level.

So if you’re interested in getting started, having some troubles with your own brews, or just looking for someone to swap stories with, Alec and Rich are your guys and South Bend Brew Werks is your place.
