Moody Tongue Brewing Company, founded in 2014 in Chicago by Jared Rouben and Jeremy Cohn, operates as a chef-driven brewery that blends culinary craft with beer making. The company describes its approach as culinary brewing, focusing on sourcing high-quality ingredients, careful handling, and deliberate timing to build layered flavors. The concept targets diners and beer enthusiasts seeking refined flavor pairings. In 2019 it moved to a 28,600-square-foot facility in Chicago's South Loop, expanding production and housing two dining concepts: The Bar at Moody Tongue and The Dining Room at Moody Tongue. The restaurant-brewery has earned recognition in the MICHELIN Guide across multiple years (2021–2025) and received a 2024 Michelin Star for contemporary cuisine. Since its Chicago start, Moody Tongue has expanded to New York City and West Palm Beach, and in 2026 opened a new location in Austin, Texas, while also developing its Moody Tongue Sushi concept.
