This led him to build a hotel on site, which eventually evolved into the public pools north of Durango today. The springs were eventually discovered by Frank Trimble (the namesake of today’s hot springs), who is said to have healed his rheumatism and injuries in the healing waters. Trimble Hot Springs has a rich history, dating all the way back to Ancestral Puebloans in the years 1000 to 1200. The water here is rich in minerals, particularly calcium bicarbonate, with sodium and iron. Hot Springs in Durango are the only naturally hot waters open to the public in the area north of Durango. Hop Springs ins located at 6790 John Bragg Hwy, Murfreesboro TN 37127. Steel Barrel Brewing at Hop Springs is open now with tap- room hours seven days a week and a series of events and concerts taking place weekly. Life is Brewing is a craft beverage and consulting company founded by the team behind Mantra Artisan Ales who brew culinary-inspired and true sour beers under the brand Mantra Artisan Ales, clean and true to style beers under the brand Steel Barrel Brewing, and experimental IPAs under the brand Humulus Project. The new facility will allow us to keep a steady flow of our year-round offerings in the market as well as get us back to experimenting with new beers that will be offered in the taproom, and at the upcoming beer gardens at MTSU football games.” EVP of Sales Jay Martin says “The difference between these two breweries is a lot more than just capacity. The Life is Brewing team behind the scenes at Mantra will now get to move from the original 15-barrel brew system to a brand new, state of the art 60-barrel brew system that can brew more than 125k Barrels a year. “We are so happy with how the community has already taken to this facility since we opened our doors and are excited to keep taking on more events and providing more great times for people all over middle Tennessee.” Life is Brewing CEO Mark Jones was a driving force for the expansion to the new complex located on John Bragg Highway between Murfreesboro and Woodbury which includes hiking trails, disc golf, and big plans for more activities. The inception of Mantra began with a partnership with celebrity chef and restaurateur Maneet Chauhan and her husband Vi- vek Deora who remain part of the parent company, Life is Brewing Bev Co. This means we’ll be closing the Mantra taproom in conjunction with moving all sour beer production to Hop Springs.” The entire LIB team decided to move our sour beer production to Hop Springs to consolidate our efforts into the new Murfreesboro location. After many many sleepless nights over the decision. Morse shared more about the decision to move Mantra to Murfreesboro on Facebook, “With a heavy heart, we’ve decided to close our Franklin location. Since beginning in early 2015, the Life is Brewing team grew their small craft brewery to include three different beer brands (Mantra Artisan Ales, Steel Barrel Brewing, and Humulus Project) and two venues including the Franklin Location and Hop Springs. The move marks Mill Creek Brewing’s 3rd taproom opening and 2nd production facility and will make them the only distributing production brewery operating in Williamson County. As a part of the move, Mill Creek Brewing Co., of Nolensville, will take over the space, expanding their taproom presence to the Franklin area and utilize the additional brewing capacity as a test kitchen for experimental and specialty beers. As of September 1st, Mantra Artisan Ales will be leaving their Franklin space to focus entirely on the new 83-acre beer park and new state of the art brewing facility in Murfreesboro known as Hop Springs.
