TailGate Brewery Named Top Workplace 2024 by The Tennessean

This fiercely independent craft beer and pizza hub is proud to be a Top Workplace for the second consecutive year!


NASHVILLE, June 11, 2024 – TailGate Brewery has been named a top workplace by The Tennessean for the second year in a row! The annual award recognizes outstanding companies in Tennessee that create safe spaces for employees to thrive, as voted on by employees.


With nine locations across Tennessee and more than 200 local teammates, TailGate Brewery is a fiercely independent regional mainstay. TailGate’s brewers keep things interesting by brewing a wide variety of styles, from traditional German lagers to boundary-pushing styles like Pickle Gose and Key Lime Pie Sour, truly offering something for everyone. Their exceptional food and made-from-scratch pizzas are crafted with the same spirit of fun, innovation and commitment to the highest quality. 


To achieve its goal of being a Top Workplace, TailGate actively works toward that initiative by offering 100% company-paid healthcare for their team members, and consistently auditing wages to ensure they’re among the best in the craft beer industry. 


“Our goal is to be the best place to work, period. Not just the best brewery to work at,” said Wesley Keegan, TailGate Brewery’s sole owner and original founder. “I believe you show your appreciation by paying people great, and the fact that this award is decided by our team members means a ton. We’re thrilled to earn it, and we’ll keep at it for 2025!”


The Nashville-based beer and pizza hub distributes their delicious craft beer lineup statewide. Stop by one of TailGate Brewery’s nine inviting taprooms or ask for TailGate Orange at your favorite bar or restaurant across Tennessee to taste what excellent teamwork can brew.
