In golf vernacular, a mulligan is when someone screws up their shot and is allowed to re-do it without penalty. Mulligans are often awarded out of pity, and they sure as hell aren’t allowed in formal rounds of the sport. Similarly, there are no mulligans in the beer business — not with money on the line — but every once in a while, there are second chances. Today, we’re talking to a guy who got one.
On this episode of “Taplines,” we’re joined by George Esquivel, co-founder of Dallas’s Four Corners Brewing Company. He’s here to talk about selling his brewery to Constellation Brands, spending five years within the belly of Big Beer’s Big Golden Beast, and then retaking control to go independent again in 2023. It’s a rare perspective that only a few brewers across the country have, and Esquivel graces us with rare candor when telling his tale. Tune in for more.
