A Q&A With Leslie Henderson of Lazy Magnolia

Leslie Henderson is as southern as the beers she brews. A Mississippian born and raised, she and her husband Mark opened Lazy Magnolia Brewery in Kiln, Mississippi, in 2005 and have since developed a loyal following for their regionally inspired beers brewed with local ingredients like roasted pecans and honey from a bee-keeping uncle. Here Leslie talks about how they came up with the name, her most challenging ingredient and what other local flavors are next up on tap.
