As the saying goes, Fortune Favours the bold, Fortune Favours the brave.

Shannon Thorpe, our founder, took this expression and ran (straight to the bank) with it when he founded Fortune Favours in 2016. Shannon threw caution to the wind, quitting his day job, and relocating to the Capital with his young family, amidst a few raised brows. But, as he reminded himself, Fortune Favours the bold, Fortune Favours the brave. Then, he cajoled Dale Cooper, award-winning brewer, whose palate trumps his beard (hard to believe, we know), to join him and they set out to brew really great beer for everyone.

And that’s exactly what we’ve done.
