Fertile Ground celebrates Two Year Birthday Week
SUMMARY: At Fertile Ground Beer Company, the magic of brewing beer happens in a three vessel brew system where it takes 68 hours to brew one batch. The fermentation tanks turn the wort into beer by adding yeast, which converts it into alcohol. Each tank holds one type of beer at a time, which is kegged or canned before being sold. The water used in brewing is filtered for quality, and the process involves a dedicated team who work early mornings. The company's flagship beer is a pilsner, and they are celebrating their second year in Jackson with new beers and food trucks at an upcoming event.
