🏕️🤎 A little Backpacker’s Brew update 🤎🏕️

We hope you’re all enjoying the fall menu as much as we’re enjoying making it for you!! ☕️✨

We also wanted to give everyone a little heads up that Backpacker’s Brew will be CLOSED Saturday, Sunday, and Monday for Labor Day weekend! (9/5 - 9/7)

We’re taking a few days to slow down, step away from the shop, and do what we love most… heading out on an adventure to go backpacking and camping 🌲🥾

As much as we love serving coffee, creating new drinks, and seeing all of your familiar faces, we’re also incredibly thankful to have the opportunity to take time for ourselves, recharge, and enjoy the reason behind our name. 🤎

We truly can’t thank you enough for supporting our little business. Because of YOU, we are able to continue growing, chasing this dream, and occasionally pack up our backpacks and head for the woods.

Come grab a cup before we go… then we’ll see you on the other side of the weekend! 🏕️✨

Today we’re celebrating Teygan on her “last day” at Backpacker’s Brew 🥹☕️

In just a few short days, she’ll be trading coffee runs for college life as she heads to the University of Sioux Falls to start her freshman year AND continue doing what she loves on the softball field. 🥎💜

Teygan, we are so proud of you and everything you’ve accomplished. Getting to watch you grow both behind the bar and beyond it has been pretty special. We’re going to miss having you around every day, but thankfully this isn’t a goodbye! 🫶🏼

You’ll be back with us as a seasonal Backpacker during your breaks, so we’ll still get our Teygan fix from time to time. 😉

Go make some memories, play some ball, and enjoy every minute of this next adventure. We’ll be cheering you on every step of the way! 🌲☕️

Good luck, Teygan! Once a Backpacker, always a Backpacker. 🤎
