Beer and brewing is a hobby for many, but taking it to the next level and making a living out of it is a big step. It's one that John Jackson did not take lightly.
John's brewery and taproom - Wild Parrot Brewing Company in Pasadena, California, USA - took a while to go from concept to actuality, because he took his time and did it right.
