Jackalope Brewing Company, affectionately known as “”The Ranch,”” is a must-see spot for beer lovers visiting Nashville. Nestled in the vibrant Wedgewood-Houston area, this brewery combines craft beer, a sense of community, and a friendly vibe.

Jackalope Brewing Company was brought to life by Bailey Spaulding and Robyn Virball, who crossed paths while studying in Scotland. They opened the brewery in 2011, and it has since become a beloved part of Nashville’s craft beer landscape. Their mission is to brew tasty and inventive beers, and they’ve expanded their distribution across Middle Tennessee, Chattanooga, and Memphis.

Bailey and Robyn’s love for homebrewing inspired them to start the brewery. In 2010, Steve Wright joined as an intern and eventually became a full partner and COO. Their motto, “”Drink Legendary,”” speaks to their dedication to crafting high-quality, unforgettable beers. Each beer is named after a legend, like Thunder Ann (a pale ale) and Bearwalker (a maple brown ale), adding a touch of whimsy to the experience.
