WELCOME TO BREW BANK!

WHO WE ARE

The owners of Brew Bank, Ryan Cavanaugh and Dusty Snethen’s connection to one another goes all the way back to middle school in Topeka, Kansas. They used to spend time finding things to jump over with their skateboards.

     
They stayed friendly through high school, but eventually went off to college and their separate ways. Ryan would take up acting and film making in sunny California, while learning to bar-tend, wait tables, manage restaurants and brew beer as a brewer’s apprentice. Dusty dabbled in surgical technology and would eventually become a teacher and earn a masters in administration and leadership.

Eventually fate would reconnect the friends as Dusty was searching for someone to help him start a new film club and summer film camp for kids in their hometown of Topeka. Ryan immediately volunteered for the opportunity and Dusty and Ryan were officially in business together.
The concept of Brew Bank would start to emerge as Ryan and Dusty spent more and more time searching for that ideal pub. Finally the two agreed if they couldn’t find a place with great Kansas brews and a community atmosphere, they decided they would just create it.  A subsequent TopTank competition win of a $100,000 investment into their idea, and the passing of a new liquor law allowing self-serve taps, paved the way for Ryan and Dusty’s new business. Thus, Brew Bank was born.
