Boscos - Honors

Boscos, The Restaurant for Beer Lovers, has been attracting awards and attention since opening their first location, Tennessee’s Original Brewpub, in Germantown in 1992.

Besides being the first post-prohibition restaurant brewery in Tennessee, Boscos has also been recognized as a craft brewing innovator and pioneer. These innovations include the development and brewing of a traditional Stone, or “Steinbeer” and two gold medals in the prestigious Great American Beer Festival in the competitive “Experimental Beer Category”
