    Right on, man. So glad to see breweries being started anywhere in Mississippi. There is such a wide open market for this here now. I look forward to the brews and I wish you all the best. Cheers!

    That's great news — best of luck to you. I live in Memphis but will happily make the drive to try your beer. Care to give us any more insight on some of the beers in the works?

    We will be doing test batches of three types this month: Citra IPA, a milk stout, and our session beer. Not sure what this one will end up being. We are also planning on our own root beer as well.

    I have bought quite a few bourbon barrels and we will be experimenting with cask conditioned and long term aging immediately.

    We're going to keep it to 3 or 4 styles this first year and make them the best we can versus getting spread out to thin.

    We will be in the following Mississippi counties this year:


    Alcorn, Benton, Bolivar, Calhoun, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Clay, Coahoma, Desoto, Itawamba, Lafayette, Lee, Lowndes, Marshall, Monroe, Oktibbeha, Panola, Pontotoc, Prentiss, Quitman, Sunflower, Tallahatchie, Tate, Tippah, Tishomingo, Tunica, Union, Washington, Webster, and Yalobusha Counties.


    We will be pretty conservative on adding territories because we want to adequately serve our home region first.

    If you live in one of these counties and would like to see our beer in your favorite bar or retail outlet, please let the management or bartender know that we are coming on-line in the late summer and you'd like to try our Mississippi made beers by Yalobusha Brewing Company.

    Didnt forget, unfortunately. Odds are that we won't be in Lauderdale and other south MS counties until January.
    That's why I said "this year" in my post and referenced only the counties I was certain of.

    If this changes, I will announce it as soon as I know.

    I'll just have to be patient and wait for the Madison/Hinds/Rankin county areas next year. Always exciting to see a Mississippi brewer getting started. Brew on, folks!

    This is great news. I live in Southaven (just below Memphis, for those that aren't familiar with MS). Memphis has three new breweries in the making and I was wondering how long it would take for something to get started in North MS. I wish you all the best of luck. Keep us posted with updates. I'm sure I am not the only BA member that would be willing to help with spreading the word or other advertising ways.

    Little late to this thread, but soooo glad someone is doing this in our area - though I wish it had been me. :slight_frown: ! Best of luck to you and I can't wait for it to hit the shelves here in Oxford!
    Cheers
