Voyage Denver Interviews Locke + Co’s Rick Talley

Our very own Rick Talley recently sat down with Voyage Denver to discuss all things Locke + Co (and more).

We’re a humble bunch, but we’ll occasionally sit down for a drink and a chat with respected local media outlets who share our passion for whiskey and community. 

And that’s precisely what Locke + Co co-founder Rick Talley recently did with Voyage Denver. 

So visit their site to learn about Rick’s journey from brewing beer in a Littleton, Colorado garage as a teen to producing Colorado’s finest aspen-aged rye whiskey. 

And if you’re a budding entrepreneur (we know many of you are), you might also find some inspiration to help you keep fighting the good fight. 

 

So, what are you waiting for?

Head over to Voyage Denver to read the feature.
