In a recent press release, Jason Kelce, retired center for the Philadelphia Eagles, and his brother Travis Kelce, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, announced their investment in Ohio-based light beer company Garage Beer. This marks their first joint venture since launching their successful podcast called “New Heights” in 2022. The two University of Cincinnati alumni are excited to be working together as owners and operators of a business for the first time.
The brothers have been in discussions with Garage Beer for the past two years and are set to be involved in all aspects of the business, from brewing to national expansion efforts. Founded in Cincinnati in January 2023, Garage Beer is currently based in Columbus, Ohio and is available in 13 states with plans to expand to more states this year. One of the co-owners of Garage Beer, Andy Sauer, emphasized the brand’s commitment to quality and small-batch brewing. He spoke highly of the Kelce brothers’ shared passion for beer and their innovative business acumen, noting that their involvement will bring a fresh perspective to the company.
According to Jason Kelce, Garage Beer perfectly embodies quality and simplicity, making it the best light beer for him and his lifestyle. Travis Kelce also shared his enthusiasm for the venture, highlighting his love for quality and enjoyment of a cold beer. The brothers believe that beer has the power to bring people together and create lasting memories with loved ones. They are excited about this new venture and look forward to working together with Garage Beer to continue creating a beer that not only tastes great but also fosters a sense of community and storytelling among neighbors and friends.
