#1 Alex Mortenson - Uptown Garage Brewing Co.
Hey everyone! Our first guest is Alex Mortenson the GM of the very popular Uptown Garage Brewing Co.
I brought him in as the first guest of the podcast because they are the host location for my vision of this new project I started. I am so grateful that local businesses like Uptown Garage exist because I truly believe it is the backbone of our our nation's economy. If local business does well, the community prospers.
I hope you enjoy learning about this business as well as the #craftbeer industry which is very huge here in Iowa.
Thank you for listening to #theiowaentrepreneur
