Doghouse Hotel

World's first crowdfunded craft beer hotel

Situated just 10 miles from downtown Columbus, the “world’s first crowdfunded craft beer hotel” is now under construction in Canal Winchester, Ohio. The 50-room hotel will be the first of its kind with rooms overlooking brewing facilities. The hotel will be attached to BrewDog’s first US brewery and an all-new, state-of-the-art sour beer brewing facility. BrewDog, the company building the widely-anticipated Doghouse Hotel, is a craft brewery that began in Scotland 10 years ago.

Through our Value-Add Reseller All Steel Mid-Rise, a cold-formed steel framing system was selected as the solution to erect the shell quickly and safely, without sacrificing quality. Constructed using Composite TotalJoist and pre-fabricated wall panels, the structure was erected in just 18 days.

Project Highlights

Expedited Construction Schedule

The Doghouse hotel has an accelerated occupancy date of Q3 2018. In an effort to expedite construction to allow for on-time occupancy, BrewDog was looking for an innovative building material. The were concerned about saving time, beginning with the building shell package.

Supporting follow-up trades

By completing the shell at an expedited rate compared to standard wood framing, follow-up trades were able to begin work ahead of schedule, saving time and money. Cost savings were also realized due to the fact that the systems are prefabricated off-site, allowing for reduced manpower.

Dealing with weather

Off-site prefabrication ensured that despite winter weather that would typically halt construction, work is able to ensue in order to maintain a strict schedule.
