Cody Morris traded a steady office job for the overnight shift on a 1950s bottling line. More than a decade later, he's VP of Brewing Operations at Harland Brewing.
He sits down with us to talk about the road from Mission Brewery to co-founding Embolden, the $495-a-barrel b**r that became a lesson in brewing economics, and how Harland keeps both the b**r nerds and the Costco dads coming back.
