This holiday season, the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce is encouraging you to Think Local First and support the small businesses that make our community strong by shopping local during Small Business Weekend, Saturday, November 29th and Sunday, November 30th throughout the Brookville area. In a world where it’s easy to click “add to cart” or standing in line at a big-box store, it’s more important than ever to remember what happens when we choose to support the businesses right here at home. Every dollar spent at a small business stays right here to strengthen our local economy and support the people who live and work among us.  When you shop small, you’re helping a little girl take dance lessons, a little boy get his team jersey, a mom put food on the table, a dad pay the mortgage, or a college student afford tuition. “We don’t have large chain restaurants or shopping malls in Brookville,” said Jamie Popson, Executive Director of the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce, “but what we do have is a warm smile that greets you, genuine service from someone who knows your name, a personal touch to help you find just the right thing, and a shopping experience where you leave with more than your purchase, you leave with a new friend.” Small Business Weekend in Brookville will be filled with festive fun and community spirit. Shoppers can enjoy giveaways, discounts, specials, and a free tote bag sponsored by local businesses eager to thank you for choosing local. It’s the perfect time to explore the variety Brookville has to offer, discover unique holiday gifts, and enjoy the charm of small-town shopping at its best. From curated vintage treasures and elegant home décor, chic fashion, luxurious fragrances, intimate accessories, gourmet treats, and festive finds, the Brookville area is full of surprises. You’ll discover outdoor gear and quality workwear featuring trusted brands and so much more. Every corner of Brookville offers something special — a blend of creativity, tradition, and personality that makes shopping local a true destination of discovery. With rising costs and challenges touching everyone in some way, this season is a reminder that kindness costs nothing and that supporting your neighbors makes a real difference. Every purchase, no matter how small, helps keep our community strong and thriving. Small Business Weekend is more than a shopping event — it’s a celebration of community, connection, and the people who make Brookville feel like home.

Temerity Aleworks Brings Bold Brewing Tradition Back to Brookville

Grand Opening & Ribbon Cutting Set for September 13 Brookville has a proud brewing history dating back to the 1800s, when local breweries like the North Fork and Spring Brewery served the community. That tradition has been waiting to be revived… until now. After more than a century, Brookville once again has a hometown brewery. Please join us and raise a glass to Temerity Aleworks! The Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce will officially welcome Temerity Aleworks, located at 98 Service Center Road, Brookville, PA, with a Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony on Saturday, September 13, 2025 at 3:50pm, followed by the official Grand Opening celebration at 4pm. Guests will enjoy food from Bill Yum’s Good Eats food truck and live acoustic music from Amanda James and Sean Hook. Temerity means excessive confidence or boldness; audacity, a fitting reflection of the founders’ approach to brewing. Temerity Aleworks embraces traditional European beer styles with fearless creativity, inviting the community to experience beer “the way it was intended.” Founders Kevin and Jamie focus on English, German, and Belgian traditions, brewing beer with uncompromising attention to detail and respect for the craft.  Using water science, yeast selection, and time-honored fermentation techniques, they strive to present light, crisp ales and lagers to rich, robust porters and stouts, creating classic flavors that invite everyone, even those unsure about craft beer, to savor the artistry in every pour. At over 8,000 square feet, the brewery and taproom is designed to bring people together, not just to enjoy beer. From live music and events to indoor cornhole, a pinball arcade, and food trucks, Temerity Aleworks is creating a versatile space for the community to gather, connect, and celebrate. While the brewery does not serve food in-house, guests can enjoy a variety of local food trucks to ensure their visit offers something delicious to pair with their carefully crafted beers. “We want to represent traditional styles of beer and open conversations about craft brewing, even for people who think they don’t like craft beer,” said co-owner Jamie. “Our goal is to make Temerity Aleworks a place where everyone feels welcome.” The opening of Temerity Aleworks is more than just the launch of a new business. It marks the return of an important part of Brookville’s heritage, while also creating a vibrant destination for both locals and visitors. The brewery enhances the local economy, provides a new gathering place for the community, and helps put the Brookville area on the map for craft beer enthusiasts across the region.
