I didn\u2019t fall in love with craft beer at a brewery or on a patio with friends. I fell in love with it while I was pregnant.<\/p>\n

Before my daughter was born, beer was \u2026 fine. But suddenly, when I couldn\u2019t have it, it became fascinating. I\u2019d ask my husband to order the most intriguing saisons, the juiciest IPAs, just so I could sneak a whiff or savor one tiny sip. When I became a mom, something shifted. Craft beer wasn\u2019t just a drink\u2014it became part of my evolving identity. It was a little rebellion, a little indulgence, and a way to connect with myself in the whirlwind of new parenthood.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the thing about beer, from crafting to enjoying. It\u2019s about more than just a beverage. It\u2019s about belonging. It\u2019s about making time for pleasure in the relentless scramble of new motherhood. And for these moms, it\u2019s about building community and creating meaning.<\/p>\n

This article provides a snapshot of three women who\u2019ve carved out their place in the craft beer world while raising children. Whitney Selix of Lua Brewing<\/a> in Des Moines, Lindsey Mrav of Grain & Grit Beer<\/a> Co. in Hamilton, Ontario, and Amanda McLamb of Resident Culture Brewing<\/a> in Charlotte, North Carolina, are redefining what it means to be a brewer, a business owner, and a mom.<\/p>\n

A Newborn, a Brewery, and a Toddler<\/h2>\n

For Whitney Selix, co-owner of Lua Brewing, the craft beer industry wasn\u2019t just a career path\u2014it was where she felt at home in the world. She started in craft beer right out of college at the University of Iowa, eventually managing restaurants in her home state, while her husband, Scott, started brewing. Their shared dream became reality in 2019 when they opened Lua Brewing in Des Moines.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was nursing during interviews,\u201d Selix recalls, juggling opening a business with parenting a newborn and a toddler. \u201cThere were times I\u2019d have my baby in a jumper in the office or asleep on a pillow near the bar while I worked.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Lua<\/figure>\n

Whitney and Scott made a conscious choice to make Lua a family-friendly place\u2014because, for them, family is at the heart of everything. Their three kids\u2014Kit, 7, Lawson, 5, and Lennon, 3\u2014have grown up alongside the brewery. \u201cOur kids run around like they own the place,\u201d Selix laughs.<\/p>\n

Running a brewery and raising kids isn\u2019t easy. The hours are long. There\u2019s no daycare open for a shift that ends at midnight. But Selix sees the value in what her kids are witnessing. \u201cIt\u2019s good for them to see us working hard and building something.\u201d<\/p>\n

She\u2019s also working toward broader change, advocating for family-friendly policies in the hospitality industry, making sure parents get the leave and hours that make managing work and family doable. \u201cParenting changes your perspective,\u201d she says. Selix believes being a mom has made her both a better leader and a better person.<\/p>\n

\n
\"toddlers<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

When work gets overwhelming, Selix finds that her family grounds her. \u201cMotherhood has given me a deeper well of empathy, patience, and perspective that I never fully appreciated before,\u201d she reflects. \u201cI\u2019ve learned to navigate chaos, pivot when things don\u2019t go as planned, and approach challenges with more grace\u2014all of which have made me a better leader.\u201d<\/p>\n

The activities involved with raising young children have also sparked creativity.<\/p>\n

\u201cChildren\u2019s shows are great inspiration for beer names,\u201d says Selix. \u201cStay tuned for a beer named Dance Mode to be released inspired by a Bluey episode.\u201d <\/p>\n

The brewery\u2019s pi\u00f1a colada sour was conceived by watching one of her favorite episodes of the show. \u201cWho doesn\u2019t love the whole Dance Mode concept?\u201d she explained. \u201cThe idea that you can flip a switch, and someone has to start dancing, is amazing.\u201d Their new beer seeks to channel that same feel-good energy. \u201cKids are a great inspiration for the light in life, and keeping things happy when adulthood is so heavy,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

The Mom & Pop Brewery<\/h2>\n

For Lindsey Mrav, co-founder of Grain & Grit Beer<\/a> Co., the journey started as a hobby. Her husband, Joe, began homebrewing while Lindsey was freelancing as a graphic designer and raising their two young kids, Evan, 11, and Ella, 14, and Joe was working as a mechanical engineer.<\/p>\n

In 2017, they transformed an old auto garage in Hamilton, Ontario, into Grain & Grit Beer Co. It took blood, sweat, and tears to transform the rough space into an inviting brewery. \u201cWe opened with a four-year-old and a seven-year-old,\u201d Lindsey says. \u201cIt was relentless and hard.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"moms<\/figure>\n

They envisioned Grain & Grit as a true \u201cmom and pop\u201d brewery\u2014and not just because of who owns it. Their taproom isn\u2019t just a place to grab a beer; it\u2019s a space for events such as mom meetups, clothing swaps, vintage markets, and book clubs. (Lindsey pointed out that there are plenty of baby-centric events; she prioritized creating gatherings with moms at the center.)<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing a mom goes hand in hand with what we do,\u201d Lindsey says. \u201cIt\u2019s made me better at planning, at juggling, at building community.\u201d<\/p>\n

She\u2019s also focused on making the brewery a better place to work for other parents.  \u201cWe\u2019re a small team, but we make sure people can take time off when they need it\u2014whether that\u2019s parental leave, appointments, or just the flexibility to be there for their families.\u201d<\/p>\n

Where Your Weird\u2014and Your Family\u2014Is Welcome<\/h2>\n

\u201cI truly believe this is the best industry in the world,\u201d says Amanda McLamb, co-founder of Resident Culture Brewing<\/a> in Charlotte, North Carolina. \u201cThere\u2019s such a sense of collaboration, kindness, and a rising tides mentality. [It\u2019s] the heartbeat of everything I believe in.\u201d<\/p>\n

McLamb\u2019s love for gathering around food and drink runs deep. Growing up in the U.S., many of her memories are centered around big family meals\u2014her grandparents, who immigrated from China, filling the table with food, conversation, and connection. Later, as a young traveler, a visit to the Guinness brewery sparked something bigger. \u201cThe process of fermentation, the history\u2014it blew my mind. It brought together everything I loved: nature, agriculture, science, flavor.\u201d<\/p>\n

McLamb and her husband, Phillip, started envisioning a life centered around hospitality and community. They moved to Charlotte and found an old warehouse in a neighborhood full of shuttered buildings. They rolled up their sleeves, and together\u2014with Amanda bringing her food writing background and newly minted real estate license, and Phillip bringing his expertise in project management\u2014they transformed that warehouse into Resident Culture Brewing.<\/p>\n

When they opened in 2017, their daughter Piper was just five months old. \u201cWe were two crazy kids in love with a wild idea,\u201d McLamb laughs. \u201cWe opened a business and became parents at the same time. Both were intense identity shifts, full of extraordinary challenges and deep, hard labor, sometimes literally\u2014I broke my tailbone giving birth to Piper.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eight years later, Resident Culture is thriving. So is their family, which now includes Isla, age four. Their brewery has become a neighborhood hub, a place where kids are abundant during Friday food truck nights, where regulars gather, and where innovation is baked into the culture. They even host one of the city\u2019s biggest Lunar New Year celebrations\u2014an event McLamb created because she wanted her daughters, and her community, to share in the culture that shaped her.<\/p>\n

The brewery\u2019s name itself is a nod to that sense of belonging. In fermentation, \u201cresident culture\u201d refers to the wild yeasts and bacteria that inoculate the sugary wort and turn it into beer. At the brewery, it also refers to the people who shape Resident Culture\u2019s space\u2014employees, customers, family, and friends.<\/p>\n

McLamb doesn\u2019t sugarcoat how hard it\u2019s been to juggle motherhood, business ownership, and leadership\u2014especially through challenges such as Covid when they chose to close their taproom days before they were required to. \u201cThe heavier responsibility of leadership is extremely hard, and I take it seriously,\u201d she says. \u201cBut I love the me that was created out of all these hard times. I wouldn\u2019t hit replay, but I wouldn\u2019t trade who I\u2019ve become.\u201d<\/p>\n

At Resident Culture, a sign sums up their ethos: Where Your Weird Is Welcome. It\u2019s not just a slogan, it\u2019s how McLamb shows up\u2014for her team, for her family, and for the community she\u2019s helped build, one beer and one wild, wonderful day at a time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
