The Pets of Left Hand
Posted: June 14, 2023
You know the faces behind Left Hand Brewing….but how well do you know the pets?
Brewery pets aren’t your average pets. If we’re being honest here, the Lefty pets run the show behind the scenes. While you might not see their wagging tails and wet noses in our tasting room, they keep us on top of things behind-the-scenes with their smiles, sass, and zoomies.
Don’t be surprised if you’re required to give a few belly scratches to enter the beer garden this year!
