The founder a Tulsa brewery and and the man who helped revitalize downtown with the McNellie's Group restaurants are joining forces to start a brewpub. Eric Marshall and Elliot Nelson will open a sports bar and brewpub by ONEOK Field in spring or summer of next year, Marshall said.

The McNellie's website had this post up today:

"Excited to be working on a sportsbar and brewpub by ONEOK Field. Eric Marshall overseeing the beer. Coming Spring/Summer 2015. Get excited, I know we are. We've been talking about it for 4 years and it's finally happening! Any name ideas? "Front Office" is the favorite right now with "Wheelhouse" and "Elgin Park" as close seconds."

This is exciting news. The area around the park has been growing and this is just another reason to go downtown. Looking forward to the new endeavor!

So.. where exactly?

Awesome!

I had heard the GreenArch building at one time, but not sure that is the case.

So.. where exactly?

The planned location is right across the street from the ONEOK field ticket windows in an existing building.  Marshall Brewing Company's brewmaster Eric Marshall will be handling the brewery part of the project.  "We will have 4-6 house beers brewed on premises that are 3.2% ABW (Alcohol by weight) and have numerous other beers that are regular strength," Marshall said. "The production size will be a 7-10 barrel system."

Guessing it is this red building

I was wrong.  Old Gates Hardware Building.  216 N Elgin.  I believe this was known as Curly's bar one time.  Saw a few bands there when I moved to Tulsa in the early 2000's.

I'd love to see some rooftop seating if the building allows for it. Or at least some outdoor seating facing Brady.

So this sounds like direct competition with Lucky's but maybe not?  Also, I thought brewpubs were illegal in OK.  Or are they just not allowed to serve food?  This sounds great though!!

I believe the main requirement is they are limited to 3.2 beer.

[rdj]

They can brew and serve 3.2 beer.

[Hoss]

They can brew and serve 3.2 beer.

Once again. ABLE sucks.

[LeGenDz]

Is this the "Leftys" in GreenArch

Edit: oops lol

[BKDotCom]

Do is this the "Leftys" in GreenArch

Can has sports beer?

[Conan71]

Once again. ABLE sucks.

Try a few of Prairie's 3.2% ABW beers they are now serving pints of and filling growlers with at their brewery.  It will make you think twice about the limitations of brewing at such a low alcohol content.  Far cry from MillerBudCoors piss water.

Oh, and BTW, there's a new place for you to road trip for good beer: Macadoodles on Rangeline Road in Joplin.  I stopped in yesterday on my way back from some business in Missouri.  Not only New Belgium, but Stone, Odell, Shlaffly, Mother's, O'Fallon, Breckenridge, etc. ad nauseum.  It's like every brand you cannot find in Oklahoma plus they support the Missouri microbreweries we still can't get in Oklahoma.  My poor car needs new rear springs now.
