Jeremy Joerger, owner of JDub’s Brewing Company, made a complete life change in order to open his own production brewery in Sarasota, but unlike many other folks who make this same change, Jeremy’s move was chronicled in a 30-minute television show on HGTV.

HGTV ran the Jdub’s Brewing episode of New House, New Life on Sunday night and it showcased the (albeit abridged) good and bad of building JDub’s Brewing in Sarasota- and thank goodness JDub stayed away from the water treatment plant. the episode combined with the usual moving and house hunting with the more intimate side of finding two new places to build a home and a brewery – both spaces found in a 30 minute time slot, bookended by the opening party at the brewery.

In the end, JDub’s opened at 1215 Mango Road in Sarasota and has not looked back since.
