MAXWELTON, W.Va. (AP) — At the height of COVID-19, when much of the world was stir crazy for something — anything — to do, Samantha Fox’s imagination latched onto an idea that wouldn’t let go.
“I was losing my mind ... and so I started thinking. I was like, ‘Well, what hobbies do I have that I could turn into a career?’ ” said Fox, 32.
She wanted it to be fun. And she really liked making beer — “I had been homebrewing for about five years. I was like, I wish I could get into actually working at a brewery.”
