HeadFlyer Brewing was founded in April 2017 by Neil Miller, Amy Miller, Nate Larson, and Austin Lee with a simple goal: create a wide variety of approachable beers and a taproom that feels warm, welcoming, and community-driven. That vision came to life in the Miller Textile Building in Northeast Minneapolis.
Neil Miller began homebrewing in 2008, eventually building a custom electric brewing system and honing his craft through the American Brewers Guild program. Amy Miller, coming from a family of successful small business owners, always knew she wanted to build something of her own. Together, they partnered with Nate Larson and Austin Lee to form the foundation of HeadFlyer.
In 2026, they sold the taproom space to Dangerous Man Brewing. While the taproom chapter closed, HeadFlyer continues on, still brewing and distributing its most-loved beers to local liquor stores, bars, and restaurants.
