🌺🌴☀️Happy Jon Sparhawk Day! Wear your Hawaiian Shirt in honor of the founder of Ohio Brew Week and tag us in your photos online! #jonsparhawkday
Wear a Hawaiian shirt and do something positive for someone to honor of one of our founders and the inspiration for Ohio Brew Week, Jon Sparhawk.
20 years ago, Sparhawk, a local restaurant owner, saw the growing Ohio beer scene as a way to spur business in Athens during the summer months.
Sparhawk passed away suddenly just before the second-ever Ohio Brew Week. His name and influence are memorialized in the “Sparbock” beer, brewed by Jackie O’s for Ohio Brew Week, but is now a new, special beer brewed each year in collaboration with Ohio University's brewing class. Jon was a beloved Athens resident, highly involved and known by brewers all over the state.
“We know everyone enjoys the weekends,” said Thompson. “But Jon came up with Brew Week to boost business in Athens during the summer, and that means weekdays, too.
Help us honor his legacy during the 20th annual Ohio Brew Week by remembering where it all started. Don't miss going to this evenings Southern Ohio Copperheads game as they attempt to break the record with the most Hawaiian shirts worn in one place! #ohiobrewweek2025 #ohiobrewweek#athensohio...

🤳Our 3rd Annual Ohio Brew Week Scavenger Hunt is going on NOW!!! This event is a ton of fun to do all week of #OhioBrewWeek! Make sure you head over to our website to learn more and sign up! The hunt takes place on the Scavify phone app so follow the instructions and play along! Awesome prizes and bragging rights are at your finger tips!
Don't miss tonights signature event at 5pm, our annual Keg Tapping for #OhioBrewWeek, at the Brew Pub side of @jackieosbrewery uptown Athens!
Each year, Jackie O’s brews a special batch of beer to commemorate one of OBW’s founders, Jon Sparhawk. For years, a beer called “Sparbock” was brewed.
In 2023, a new Tradition was been born with the blessing of the Sparhawk family. Rather than brewing Sparbock every year, Jackie O’s has collaborated with Ohio University’s Chemistry Department’s summer brewing class to pick a recipe winner to be the new Brew Week Brew. This brew will honor Jon Sparhawk in a new way by allowing different classes to come up with new flavors that are released during Ohio Brew Week.
This years winner: JP’s Bavarian – traditional German style Hefeweizen
Join us and raise a glass to Jon, hear from our Executive Director Brandon Thompson, Dan Gates and Weston Lombard (former directors and founders) and join in on one of OBW’s longest running events! #ohiobrewweek2025... See MoreSee Less
