Fullsteam Brewery founder Sean Lilly Wilson is owed a major debt by any North Carolina beer drinker. He was instrumental in changing the laws here that led to purer, truer to style IPAs and other higher alcohol beer, which has since led to an explosion in the number of craft brews being batched in our state. Just as importantly, he’s also built an incredible brand, with great products that tell a fun story and provide real value to the Durham community. Whether you want to start a brewery (and as you’ll learn, you don’t actually have to have been home brewer) or just want some insight into what it takes to create a brand your customers will care about, check out The Build Cycle Podcast #005.
