E-Malt.com News article: USA, MN: Tanzenwald Brewing Company looking to make itself at home in Northfield
Brewery news

Tanzenwald Brewing Company (TBC) is looking to make itself at home at 103 Water St. in Northfield, Minnesota and will feature a 10-barrel (bbl) Craft Microbrewery, with an adjoining taproom/restaurant, Southernminn.com reported on May 31.

According to a release regarding the development, the brewery’s goal is to source as many ingredients from Northfield and Minnesota farms as possible. The local partnerships will allow Tanzenwald to support farmers and engage in unique collaborations, the release notes.

For example, Tanzenwald will send the leftover spent grain from brewing to their livestock provider, so the sausage people eat at the brewery will be fed by the same beer they are drinking.

Tanzenwald has secured 24 percent of its total start-up cost of $689,000 from private investors, according to Chris Heineman, community planning and development director, and has been approved for an additional loan.

The remaining financing is being requested in a Small Business Administration loan and two revolving loans, one from the Northfield Economic Development Authority (EDA) and the other from the Rice County Housing and Redevelopment Authority.

Last week, the Northfield EDA approved the $25,000 revolving loan request, contingent upon securing all of the other financing.

"It seems like it's going to be a big win for Northfield," said EDA member Dale Gehring.

The $25,000 will be used for building renovations and the company's owners, Steve Pittman and Jenaveve Bell Pittman, hope to have it open this fall. Some work on the site is underway, while additional renovations will begin on July 1.

“Tanzenwald means 'Dancing Forest,' and that’s what we want the taproom to feel like a party in the woods,” said Bell Pittman.
