A spirited group participated in 1 Million Cups Fargo last week, powered by cups of coffee and Fargo Brewing Company’s Aaron Hill. Aaron set a new precedent by providing all interested attendees with free samples of his company’s most popular products.

What started as a realization of something missing in Fargo became a tangible business in a matter of years. Aaron and his co founders partnered early on to give North Dakota, a state known for its affinity towards imbibing, a spot on the brewery map. The crew began by outsourcing their recipes to a non-local brewery. Now, Fargo Brewing Company products – officially locally made – are sold at bars and restaurants across North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota, and plans of expansion are constantly stirring.

This past week’s 1 Million Cups Fargo attendees were happy to share in the success of Aaron and his company. During the question and answer portion of the event, they asked about the company’s brewing methods, flavor choices, and plans for the future. Many were excited for Fargo Brewing Company’s growth, and some individuals even showed interest in investing.

1 Million Cups Fargo is moving to a new venue: The Stage at Island Park! See the address below. The events will continue this Wednesday, April 9, at 9:15 AM. Expect interesting pitches from Ryan Raguse of Virtual Farm Manager and Coy Yonce of Mantis Digital Arts.
