Episode 73 – Brewing Community with Natalie Yoder of Stodgy Brewing

In this episode of the Fort Collins Fellas podcast, Patrick and Chris sit down with Natalie Yoder, co-owner of Stodgy Brewing, one of Fort Collins’ standout breweries. Opening its doors in September 2020 in the former Forney Industries space on Laporte Avenue, Stodgy quickly became a local favorite—thanks to its commitment to using locally grown ingredients, a welcoming atmosphere, and one of the best patios in town.

Natalie shares the story behind launching a brewery in the midst of a pandemic, how her passion for craft beer led her to co-found Stodgy, and what it’s been like to be part of the growing movement of women in the brewing industry. The conversation also touches on Natalie’s deep ties to the local community and her efforts to support other small businesses in Fort Collins.

Whether you're a beer lover, a small business supporter, or just want to hear from someone making a real impact in Fort Collins, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
