Mark Leopold

Mark is an award-winning bartender and professional beer guy. His desire to delve deep into the world of cocktails began in earnest while working in Jackson, MS and taking frequent trips to the boozy city of New Orleans to learn from some very inspiring bartenders. His passion for beer began long before his parents would've liked.
