Mid-South NAMA members gathered at Meddlesome Brewing Company in Cordova, TN to get a taste of the local craft beer scene. Meddlesome was the vision of two entrepreneurs to create their own brewing company that embodies the spirit of Memphis. We met with co-owner, Richie Esquivel, and a local farmer to learn about their relationship. Richie didn’t want to waste the grain from the brewing process, so he posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a local farmer to pick up the grain for free. That’s how the relationship began with local farmer, Jarvis. He has now substituted 30% of his cattle’s feed with grain from the brewery. Eight members of our chapter enjoyed learning about the brewing process and getting a taste of Memphis craft beer.
