Ninkasi Brewing was founded in 2005 in Eugene, Oregon, by Jamie Floyd and Nikos Ridge. The idea took shape when the two friends, both with ties to Eugene, discussed opening a brewery over pints. Jamie Floyd had a decade of brewing experience at Steelhead Brewery, while Nikos Ridge had a background in finance, having worked in Manhattan before returning to Eugene in 2004. They named the brewery after Ninkasi, the ancient Sumerian goddess of fermentation. After raising funds from friends and family, they produced their first batch of beer, Total Domination IPA, in June 2006. The 17-hour brew day marked the beginning of the brewery's commercial operations. Over the years, Ninkasi expanded its product line to include a range of IPAs, seasonal beers, and variety packs. The brewery also opened a taproom and private events space in Eugene, becoming a local gathering place. Ninkasi has emphasized community involvement and creative experiences, participating in events like Eugene Beer Week. As of the latest information, the brewery remains privately held and continues to operate in Eugene.
