Hold Fast Brewing is a brick-and-mortar representation of all the principles important to the McLeod Family. What started out as a passion for beer and home brewing has blossomed into a successful family business celebrating delicious craft beer, the vibrant Springfield, Missouri community, and the memory of a father. It is a place of community, friendship, family, creativity, and love. It is a welcoming place to all. It is a place where everyone who walks in the doors is reminded to “hold fast,” and to do it with love.

Listen in as Joy Robertson sits down with one of the owners, Carol McLeod, to talk about the loss of her and Susan's dad and how it led them to opening this amazing brewery with zero experience in an old fire station.
