Look out Nashville...

We both had the Wiseacre Migration of the Taco Raptor (the Tiny Bomb without honey from what I understand) at the pizza pub place. Quite a good brew. Did you have Gotta Get Up To Get Down? Might be one of my favorite TN stouts... Their Astronaut Status is definitely my top TN stout...

I took home some Tiny Bomb but they were out of Raptor.
Years ago when my son was as Ole Miss and we visited Oxford, I got gas at a dive gas station. Saw the Gotta Get Up to Get Down sixer and said, "I have to have that". Took it back and the wife and I fell in love with it. 2 years later, it started showing up in NOLA. Now it's almost always in my fridge.
This past weekend the wife and I were visiting our son who now works in Oxford and took a day trip to Memphis (about an hour away) for a Wiseacre visit then to get some BBQ (that was awesome). First let me say they were definitely Southern and uber friendly.
We took this tour for $15 at Wiseacre before going for BBQ:
NEW! Gotta Get Up to Get Down Tour & Pairing - Available thru Saturday July 21st (at 12 pm)

Love coffee AND beer? This is event for you! We'll pair our new (non-alcoholic) Cold Brew and Gotta Get Up to Get Down with a tasty treat while talkin' beans and beer. We'll get hands-on with ingredients and compare coffee and malt kilning practices and flavor, then finish with a short tour of our facility to show you how we make these delicious (and caffeinated) beverages. $15 includes a glass of our non-alcoholic Cold Brew, a pint of our alcoholic (cause it is beer) Gotta Get Up to Get Down, and a "home-made" pop tart from our neighbors, the Liquor Store restaurant.

The 'pop tart' was huge and chocolate filled. It was just my wife and I and another local couple. A newish worker took us around the brewery for 30 minutes to discuss whatever we wanted. The brewery has a tiny dog park outside and the locals were extremely friendly and talkative. I can't wait to go back!
And double bonus, their Adjective Animal DIPA is above average. I took home these which I have not tried yet but am looking forward to.....(not the wine on the left). They are all either one offs or specialties so I could not pass them up.
Not sure what else is in Memphis but the short ride around town was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Just as a backup.......Enjoying this with a tiny bit of chocolate. The best pairing ever!

Leigh, did you visit Wiseacre in Memphis? We did last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed their noon Coffee and brewery tour. Great little place and a seriously overlooked brewery.

No, unfortunately not. This was a family vacation and the focus of the family was much different than my focus if I were on my own.

Sounds like another trip is needed.
By the way, what did you bring home that didn't show up in your previous post?
