Brew Nation, owned by Kim and Vance Nation, is located in the heart of Celina and offers customers a range of services from pottery, coffee, craft beer, live entertainment and food.
The company has gone through several changes since it was first opened as Brew Nation in 2007. It was integrated by The Potter House on Main and now lets customers paint pottery while they sip coffee and take in the ambiance. They have live music every Saturday night with seating both inside and outside.
Kim and Vance also own Lake Rat Brewery next door to Brew Nation. There are 20 beer taps, the “best wine selection in town”, according to Brew Nation’s Facebook, and a full bar for visitors to choose from. Artists are also able to display their work on the walls for customers to purchase or simply enjoy.
General Manager Caroline Hinders has worked at Brew Nation for the past four years.
“We were the first coffee shop in town and everybody knows us. It was important to Kim and Vance that there was a place like this in Celina,” said Hinders
The food served at Brew Nation ranges from cafe style selections to wood-fired pizzas.
Coronavirus
Hinders has worked on the reopening plan in the face of coronavirus.
“It is important for us that we are taking [the coronavirus] seriously,” said Hinders.
Part of the precautions include separating the disinfected pens and menus that customers use when ordering from those that have been used. They also have digital menus that can be accessed through QR Codes located on their website.
Upcoming events
On Wednesday, Sept. 16 there will be a wine tasting event hosted at Brew Nation and community members of the legal age are encouraged to participate.
Brew Nation’s address is 110 S Main St. Celina.
Brew Nation can be found on Facebook at Brew Nation-Celina/The Potter House on Main and their website brewnationohio.com.
