About

Monday Night Brewing is an Atlanta-based craft beer company. We currently offer two delicious styles of beer on draft in select Atlanta establishments.

Believe it or not, the idea for Monday Night Brewing grew out of a small Atlanta Bible study. We started brewing beer together on Monday nights as a way to get to know each other better. As we got more engrained in the industry and more people started showing up to brew with us, beer quickly became more than just a weeknight hobby.

We spent almost 5 years perfecting our Eye Patch Ale and Drafty Kilt Scotch Ale before bringing them to market. Years of minor tweaks, arguments over hop profiles, and experiments with different brands of base malts are poured into every glass that we brew.

Weekends are overrated

Our weeknight brewing sessions have also lent us our name and our rallying cry: Weekends are overrated. What does this mean to us?

• It’s not about living for the weekend, but about enjoying every day as much as you can – we believe in doing what you love with your career, even if it means taking home a smaller paycheck.
• Quality, not quantity – it’s our goal to brew beers that are both interesting and accessible. Beers that should be savored, not guzzled. After all, you’ve got work the next day, right?
• Relationships – beers that go great with meals but are also complex enough to stand on their own if you’re grabbing a beer with a friend. Beer, at its core, is a relational beverage.

The founders

Who exactly is behind Monday Night Brewing? Three friends, each with different passions and skills.

Jeff Heck, CEO Guy and Supreme Beer Chancellor email
Jeff graduated from Harvard, a fact he never fails to remind us of when trying to win an argument. But more importantly, he has an anal-retentive passion for perfection. Jeff is in charge of recipe formulation and anything related to Excel spreadsheets and/or dollar signs. He has a background in private equity. His wife, Hannah, has put up with our brewing shenanigans at their house for long enough to qualify her for sainthood.

Joel Iverson, Operations Guy and Taste-testing Ninja email
Joel is the guy we turn to when something is broken. He built our pilot brewing system. He is also pretty good at cleaning a keg. Joel likes to invent random Standard Operating Procedures (“SOP’s” as he calls them) and then enforce them after the fact. He graduated from UVA and has a background as an operations consultant. His wife, Mary Stuart, has already qualified for sainthood, as she hosted Monday Night Brewing in her house for the first year of its existence.

Jonathan Baker, Marketing Guy and Master of Mind Control email
Jonathan is the surprisingly adept creative guy. He develops and maintains the Monday Night brand, including the website and the beer labels. Jonathan also makes sure Joel doesn’t scare away any potential customers with his SOPs. He graduated from Emory and has a background in marketing strategy consulting, where we worked with some large beer brands. He recently married Saint Sarah, who is allowing him to quit his day job to pursue his passions.
