GREAT FALLS — The new MT Pints restaurant at 215 3rd Avenue NW opened its doors earlier this week in the building that formerly housed Big Mouth BBQ and The Front.
The building will also serve as the unofficial tap room for Jeremiah Johnson Brewing Company, which operates its secondary production facility next door.
While the location that once featured barbecue now serves up an entirely new Montana menu, beer-lover's favorite brews will remain a staple.
Brewery owner Jeremiah Johnson says the recent partnership allows him to produce even more seasonal brews from his plant downtown and his brewery next door.
"We produce seven beers in that (downtown) plant, so we're going to of course have those here (at MT Pints) for people to enjoy,” he said. “But what we're going to be able to do in the secondary facility is add six, seven more beers to that line up.”
Johnson plans to have more than a dozen seasonal flavors from his two brewery locations on tap at MT Pints.
