09/27/22 • 54 min

Today: A new take on the business of beer. Going off of the growing beer-out-of-a-truck business model, TapTruck2State is bringing classic, collectible trucks to the mobile beer business. Starting with a 1 of 5 prohibition-style truck, Mike and his partner and coworker, Mr. Pond, grew this business from scratch all while learning every bit of it as they went. Mike talks about how he came to Augusta for a job that soon dissappeared, which set him on a track to building, and innovating, his dream business.
