The Story

In 2016, we opened Piston Pete’s Brewery and Distillery. We were able to bridge our two favorite things, craft beer and fast cars. The brand built a strong foundation in the automotive community with great tasting beer and a roster of athletes and ambassadors who proudly represent Piston Pete’s. Today, Piston Pete’s is well known throughout the motorsports community for our quality products and our devoted support to all thing’s automotive. Our product lines have grown to include not just beer and spirits but coffee as well. Piston Pete’s apparel continues to be a badge of honor worn by all, representing their commitment to automotive culture.

“When I came up with the concept for Piston Pete’s, I wanted a brand that was irreverent, fun and true to our core. Since I was a little kid, if it had wheels and went fast, you could count me in. Some of the best times in my life were spent with family and friends, in a garage, at an event or at a racetrack, doing what we loved most, working on cars and going fast. Piston Pete’s needed to compliment that camaraderie and celebrate that special moment in time. Cars, family and friends, nothing else really mattered. If you love cars, then you get it. This brand was built to bring people together, celebrate a common love and proudly represent who we are.” – Kelly Magrath, Founder and CEO of Piston Pete’s.

Thank you to everyone that has helped and supported this brand's growth over the years. We wouldn’t be here without YOU.
