Celebrating "The Queen"!

in the beer garden are just some of what’s to come.

Gillispie is planning more events for the weekends as well. They hope for a more consistent food truck located at the taproom.

“I know that food keeps people in the seats drinking beer, and it’s nice to not have to leave or bring in your own stuff. So it’s definitely something that is in the works here, and I’m super excited to get going,” Gillispie says.

If you go into the taproom and are greeted by Gillispie, her beer recommendation would be their SMASH. That translates into a beer made with a single malt and single hop.

“My favorite Marshall beer is a SMASH Pilsner. The newest iteration will have Hallertau Blanc hops. It’s got nice notes of like a white grape Sauvignon Blanc-type feel. Super crushable and just easy drinking and it’s delicious,” she says.

Gillispie touts Tulsa’s tight-knit brewery industry and community. “We have a lot of really, really strong women who are getting things done and they’re doing a great job and I am lucky to be in a community with such strong women figures,” she says.

Marshall Brewing Co.’s taproom is located at 1742 E. Sixth St. and is open 3-8 p.m., Monday-Wednesday; 3-9 p.m., Thursday; noon-10 p.m., Friday-Saturday; and noon-6 p.m., Sunday. — TOM
