Russell Stachewicz | Owner (right)

The owners of U Pick 6 Pubs & Restaurants decided to start brewing! With their love of craft beer, the art of brewing has now become a part of our U Pick 6 family! John Russell Brewing Company is located on Upper Peach Street & I-90, adjacent to our original beer store location, which opened in 2009, which was expanded & transformed into John Russell Brewing Company Brew House & Restaurant!

How did John Russell Brewing Company get its name? John & Russ have poured their labor & pride into the craft beer community. It only makes sense to pour a beer with their names on it.

Meet The Brewer.
