This week’s interview is with brothers, Davin and Kellan Bartosch, the cofounders of Memphis based Wiseacre Brewing Company. The brothers’ passion for beer started at an early age when they infamously stole their father’s rental car during a family trip to Boston and talked their way into the Sam Adams Brewery as high school students. However, it wasn’t until after college, when Davin’s interest in homebrewing started to grow, that the brothers began to talk more seriously about the dream of opening their own brewery. They both felt strongly that they needed to cultivate expertise and years of experience before taking the plunge on their own. Davin went to brewing school, did multiple apprenticeships, and spent several years as the head brewer at Rock Bottom in Chicago, while Kellan spent many years working on the sales and distribution side of the industry. In 2013, Kellan finally convinced Davin that it was time to start their own thing and the brothers opened the doors to their first location.
