Brewery Profile
OMNI Brewing Company
For visitors looking at Maple Grove’s craft beer options, this brewery is notable for using a repurposed industrial setting rather than a traditional storefront. The brewery and taproom operate in a former Schwann’s distribution center, giving the space a functional, converted feel that fits its production role. When guests arrive, one of the most visible features is the large outdoor patio, finished in gray crushed gravel and set near two glass garage doors that open into the taproom. The setup creates a straightforward indoor-outdoor visit when weather allows. Founded by Justin Walsh and Zach Ward, the brewery was created to serve a part of the metro that did not have the same level of local craft beer access as areas closer to the urban core.
Travelers exploring breweries in this region often look for taprooms that reflect local demand as much as destination appeal, and this stop fits that pattern. OMNI’s name, meaning “all” or “of all things,” points to its stated approach: brewing across a range of styles rather than building the tap list around one narrow category. The known range includes lighter session ales along with heavier styles such as scotch ales and stouts. That makes the taproom useful for mixed groups, since visitors may be able to find both lower-intensity pours and fuller, malt-driven options depending on the day’s lineup. Its frequent high traffic also says something about the role it plays locally, drawing interest from people who want locally brewed beer without traveling into a more central beer district.
For practical planning, visitors should treat the taproom as the place to confirm the day’s pours, since the available styles can vary. The brewery does not operate an in-house kitchen, so food depends on rotating food trucks. Tru Pizza is one example of a truck that has served there and typically parks on the outdoor patio when present. Because the patio is a major part of the visitor setup, weather may shape the experience, especially for anyone hoping to sit outside or order from a truck parked there. The glass garage doors and gravel patio are part of the brewery’s recognizable layout, but food service, crowds, and beer availability are details best checked close to the time of a visit.
OMNI Brewing Company operates its brewery and taproom within a repurposed industrial space in Maple Grove, Minnesota, utilizing a former Schwann's distribution center. The facility features a large outdoor patio constructed of gray crushed gravel, adjacent to two glass garage doors that open into the taproom. Founded by Justin Walsh and Zach Ward, the brewery was established with the intent of serving an area of the metro lacking local craft beer access. The name OMNI, meaning "all" or "of all things," reflects their commitment to brewing a diverse range of styles, from session ales to heavier offerings like scotch ales and stouts. While the brewery does not maintain an in-house kitchen, food service is provided by rotating food trucks, such as Tru Pizza, which typically park on the outdoor patio. The taproom frequently experiences high traffic, indicating a strong local demand for locally brewed products outside the immediate city center.
