Gather Brewing Company - Mike and Justin

Hey cocks and chickens, welcome to the first episode of the second season. Today our guests are Mike and Justin from the as-yet-unopened Gather Brewing Company. Gather will be located in the North San Antonio suburb of Universal City. It’s going to be a medium-sized brewpub next to an airforce base that plans to offer draft, cans to go and not a thing to distribution. Today we talk about what they’ve learned, how they’ve learned it and how they plan to apply it when they finally open their doors in November 2021. We share each other’s beer, stories about guns, tasting beer with beards in it and even hopes for a successful future. My goal in interviewing these guys is two-fold. One, I hope they can provide some insight into what it’s like to be in the middle of the build-out still answering questions about how they’ll run the business while being fully pot-committed to actually running the business. Two, I truly hope to interview them 1-2 years in to shed some light on how their plans evolved once they opened the doors. What worked, what didn’t and what should have. Like Mike Tyson said. “Everyone hath a plan till they get punch-thed in the fathe.” But that, fair friends, is a podcast for another day. For today, just kick off your penny loafers, sit back and take a listen to my interview with Gather Brewing Company.
