While you’re in Mountain Home, one local business well worth a visit or three is Rapp’s Barren Brewing Company. Rapp’s has bragging rights beyond their great brew selection – they’re the first brewery to open in Mountain Home! Let’s sit for a sip and see more of this tasty landmark:
The brewery opened in fall of 2017 and has managed to thrive even during the pandemic! Let's explore this brewery more.
Their name pays homage to the town. When Mountain Home was originally settled in the early 1800s, the area was known as "Rapp's Barren." What looked like a barren, seemingly infertile plot of land to some was cherished and developed by settlers.

The brewery was started by Russell Tucker and Chris Gordon and their love of craft beer. Every single batch served at Rapp's is hand crafted with high standards.
