According to entrepreneur Peyton McNully, founder of the first yeast propagation service in the southeastern United States, brewers in Alabama are in need of high quality yeast as they refine and grow their art.
“We want our client brewers to make and sell the very best beer in Alabama, nationally, and internationally. We want to put Alabama on every beer enthusiast’s map,” McNully says.
Leavendary, one of twenty-seven resident associated companies located at the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology in Huntsville, Alabama, offers all-inclusive services to craft brewers, from quality testing and delivery of yeast to testing of brews in progress as well as finished goods. Leavendary’s newest client is the largest craft brewer in the state, Back Forty Beer Company in historic Gadsden, Alabama.
