Tiger Finance Provides $20 Million Credit Facility to Garage Beer

Garage Beer $20 Million Credit Facility

Garage Beer has another financial partner in its corner, and this one comes with $20 million in revolving credit. Tiger Finance has provided the growing Columbus, Ohio-based light beer brand with a new credit facility as Garage Beer continues to expand its product lineup, build brand awareness and push into new markets, with investors Durational Capital Management and the Kelce brothers already part of the story.

That’s a pretty significant development for a beer brand that has built much of its identity around keeping things simple. Garage Beer has made a name for itself with its crisp, 95-calorie light lager, its Beer Flavored Beer™ message and the growing attention surrounding Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce. Now, the $20 million revolving line of credit gives the company another financing resource as it works to support its business and pursue its next stage of growth.

There is a lot going on behind the scenes here, because this isn’t just about putting more Garage Beer on store shelves. The deal brings Tiger Finance into a business backed by Durational Capital Management, which made a strategic investment in Garage Beer in 2025, and the new lending arrangement is designed to support the company’s growth objectives. The announcement doesn’t spell out exactly how the funds will be allocated, but the company has made clear that expanding its product line and entering new markets remain priorities.

Beer is a crowded business, and growing a recognizable brand takes more than a good-looking can and a few famous faces. Garage Beer has been building momentum through its Classic and Lime beers, sports-related marketing and a steady run of new product ideas, while the Kelce brothers have helped bring the brand to a much wider audience. This new $20 million credit facility adds another financial tool to that effort, and here is the full announcement from Tiger Finance, Garage Beer and Durational Capital Management.

Below is the full press release from garage Beer:

Garage Beer stakeholders include Jason and Travis Kelce and Durational Capital Management.
