WV breweries often a family affair

When it comes to owning and operating a small craft brewery in West Virginia, it’s very often a family affair. A marriage not only unites two people, but it also brings two voices together in the operation and management of a family-owned brewery.

On this West Virginia Beer Roads episode, host Erin McCoy interviews two brewery partners who both play very important roles in their brewery’s operations along with their brewery manager spouses. While WV Beer Roads podcasts often explore the business of brewing from the brewer’s perspective, this interview jumps into brewery operations from the perspective of the brewer’s business partner and life partner.

Guests on the podcast are Aryn Fonda of Weathered Ground Brewery and Jana Wolfe of High Ground Brewing. Together, they provide a most insightful and refreshing view of brewery business in West Virginia — a family-affair perspective that you’ll definitely want to hear.
