Formerly home to Hudson Motors, a brand synonymous with performance and innovation, the building's automotive heritage deeply influenced Motorworks Brewing. From the name and hood ornament logo to the spirit of innovation that drives our brewing process, this space is steeped in history.
Inside the Future of Motorworks – 2012
This image captures the raw interior of the building shortly after it was acquired in 2012, before its transformation into Motorworks Brewing. The open space, with its high ceilings, black metal trusses, and exposed brick walls, reflects the building’s industrial roots. Scattered construction materials and scaffolding hint at the early stages of renovation, while natural light streams through the windows—offering a glimpse of the vibrant brewery it would soon become.
Motorworks Brewing Building – 2012
This photo captures the Motorworks Brewing building in its early days, just after it was purchased in 2012. The structure, with its red upper facade and white lower section, still bore the marks of its past life. Banners announcing "Motorworks Brewing" hinted at the transformation to come. A worker on a lift can be seen preparing the facade, marking the beginning of its journey into becoming one of Bradenton’s most iconic breweries.
Frank Tschida’s Vision – 2012
In 2012, Frank Tschida purchased the building that would become Motorworks Brewing. With a clear vision and tireless dedication, Frank took on much of the design, construction, and hands-on labor himself. This photo captures a pivotal moment during the transformation—Frank painting the exterior wall, laying the foundation for what would soon become one of Bradenton’s most beloved breweries.
