Jason Bailey is the head brewer at Old 121 Brewhouse, and he, along with fellow co-founder Brett Zahrte, will be the guest on Ep. 214 of the Jon of All Trades Podcast debuting Wednesday, June 5. It’s a great chat you won’t want to miss.

But first, he shares with me his first job busing tables at Van’s Rib Shack in Shelby, NC at 13 years old, while providing a bucolic snapshot of life in the country… or at least an extremely real picture of what growing up there was like. Enjoy!
