In 2024, K Brew became the first local business on the campus of University of Tennessee, replacing a national chain in the Haslam Business School. By the end of the spring semester,
a second brewing location had been added, and in August, a third and fourth, in UTK Athletics and Fred Brown Dining Hall. In 2025, Rocky Top Dining Hall started serving K Brew’s delicious roasts.
UTK Alumni Pierce LaMacchia (K Brew’s CEO) and Michael LaMacchia (K Brew’s COO) are honored to return to their alma mater by bringing the finest single origin and coffee blends to campus.
