Conceived in <strong>the</strong> fire of a homebrewer’s heart, Jester King was bir<strong>the</strong>d by bro<strong>the</strong>rs Jeff<br />
Stuffings and Michael Steffing in <strong>the</strong> early fall of 2010 amongst <strong>the</strong> hills in Southwest <strong>Austin</strong>.<br />
Ambitious <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> start, <strong>the</strong> bro<strong>the</strong>rs made <strong>the</strong>ir commercial debut with a session beer, wearing<br />
<strong>the</strong> moniker Commercial Suicide. It was anything but. They followed this shortly with <strong>the</strong> wildly<br />
popular Rye IPA Wytchmaker, a beer that bars could rarely keep on tap. The bro<strong>the</strong>rs could<br />
not fail. Recently, <strong>the</strong>y have moved <strong>the</strong>ir original lineup to farmhouse versions (Farmhouse<br />
Wytchmaker, Farmhouse Black Metal, etc.), in part won a court ruling against <strong>the</strong> Texas<br />
Alcoholic Beverage Commission, and brewed a second collaboration beer with gypsy brewer,<br />
Mikkeller, called “Ale”/“Malt Liquor” in TX Geek Brunch. Look for it later in 2012. Jester King has<br />
challenged conventional beer thinking while raising <strong>the</strong> bar high for <strong>the</strong> local <strong>Austin</strong> palate.
