On this week’s edition of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas podcast, we have some great storytelling from Brad and Tanae Coleman of Bethel Brew!

After corporate careers, they decided to start their own family business. They started with a coffee trailer and within 6 months of their first day with the trailer, they added 2 brick and mortar locations. How did that happen?!?! It’s an interesting story (and they’re about to open store #3!!).

Also, why coffee? Brad and Tanae knew nothing about coffee 6 years ago. They didn’t even drink coffee until recently. So why coffee? It all started one morning at a house in Tijuana on a mission trip, and that’s where it clicked for Brad and Tanae.

Speaking of mission trips, it turns out that it’s a good way to make contacts for sourcing beans and supporting those families that they’ve gotten to know along the way. You’ll hear a heartwarming story about that.

And finally, breaking news!!! Seems like we’ve been breaking more news here recently… You might be seeing Bethel Brew Beans at a store near you soon. Tanae tells all! There’s so much more- We hope you check out this week’s edition of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas!
