KOCHENDORFER BREWING COMPANY “ If you don ’ t like beer , you just haven ’ t tasted the right one .” That ’ s what the owners of Kochendorfer Brewing Company might say to you when you walk in the doors to the area ’ s first brewing company established in Duncan in 2019 .
Lenny and Kathryn Cripps and Chris and Laura ( Coast ) Kochendorfer began working on the Kochendorfer Brewing Company several years ago . When the two couples first met , they discovered they shared one thing in common : the dream of one day opening a brewery .
The company began in Oklahoma City and was birthed by the “ entrepreneurial spirit ” of the Kochendorfers and the Cripps ’ intellect on the craft beer industry .
While the Cripps have since left , the love of beer remains strong in the Kochendorfers . Community events and nonprofit support are at the forefront for staff of the brewery now , right alongside making the best dang brew you ’ ve ever tried .
The brewery ’ s home is at 1155 McCurdy Rd . in Duncan , just south of the Lawton / Duncan Y . According to the owners , the brewery sits on five wooded acres of land and serves as a destination for friends and families to get together .
Originally starting with six beers , the Brew Master has since released numerous specialties and is known for debuting special time , limited releases as well .
