Arkansas Brewing Company

Arkansas Brewing Company is a brewpub in Ozark that pairs small-batch beer with chef-driven food. The owners say a short visit there often stretches into a full evening, with a friendly staff and a chef who likes to experiment. The beer list has included Hillbilly Lager, the lightest of the house beers, a crisp “lawn mower” lager; Makes Me Hoppy, a clean IPA with a slight citrus character and balanced malt; Dirty Red, a medium-bodied, malt-forward red ale colored by roasted barley; and Drama Queen, a robust imperial pale ale with floral, citrus and pine aromas and a full body. The brewpub posts its beers, food menu and an events calendar online, and it invites travelers passing through Ozark, as well as locals, to stop in and pull up a seat.
