In this episode, I am joined by James Herrholz, the co-founder of Corporate Ladder Brewing Company in Palmetto, Florida, in a conversation recorded in February 2024.
Corporate Ladder Brewing has a certain appeal to everyone who wants to break away from their corporate jobs and brew beer or pursue a passion. The brewery focuses on innovative beers with two separate bottle clubs – one for fans of sour and one for fans of barrel-aged stouts.
James also talks with us about the process of beginning a second facility in North Carolina, and how that will affect Corporate Ladder, its fans, and its beers henceforth.
Here’s our conversation.

About Corporate Ladder Brewing
Founded in May of 2018 by Founder and Co-Owner Blake Kleppe, Corporate Ladder was the perfect excuse to run away as fast as we could from the corporate world. Since then, the team and company has grown exponentially, including adding eventual Co-Owner James Herrholz who brought culinary inspired beer to CLBC in March of 2019. We focus on fruited sours, adjunct stouts, barrel aged sours & stouts, hazy IPA’s & back of house favorites, lagers. We are always pushing the envelope while keeping our finger on the pulse of the market.
Corporate Ladder Brewing Company is the fire inside all of us yearning to break free from the norm; to chase your passion and abandon the 9 to 5. Each beer is dedicated to forgetting every cubicle that you’ve ever sat in and to every boss who just didn’t quite get it…
