College friends, military vets plan to open brewery and taproom
Lincoln, Nebraska (Lincoln Journal-Star) — The military scattered the friends after they graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
For a time, one of them was stationed on the West Coast, another on the East Coast, the third on the Gulf Coast.
When they would talk about home, Nebraska became the Corn Coast.
“It was kind of a joke,” said Will Walter, now a Marine reservist back in Lincoln. “But it kind of caught on.”
And a few years later, when the friends decided to turn a hobby into a business, they knew what they were going to call it.
