Zack Erickson
Owner/BrewerFounded in 2018, Key City Brewing Co. is the delightful dream of Brewer/Owner Zack Erickson and his wife, Kaitlin. Inspired by the Belgian brewing tradition they witnessed on their honeymoon in Belgium, they began brewing small, 5-gallon batches on their stovetop. Before too long, Kaitlin pushed Zack to pursue his passion full-time, which lead to starting his career in the illustrious San Diego beer community, working for two award-winning breweries, (Council Brewing Co. & Groundswell Brewing Co.) while attending UC San Diego’s Brewing program. Armed with practical experience and brewing theory, he decided it was time to reach for his dream. Family and the perfect building lured him to Historic Downtown Vicksburg with the dream of creating a warm and inviting brewpub where craft could flourish. Teamed with the creative minds of Cottonwood Public House, Key City found its home within CPH’s gorgeous walls, alongside legendary craft cocktails and mind-blowing craft pizza.
