What is the connection between Route 66 and mead, an ancient drink of the Vikings that filled poets and scholars with inspiration and was the drink of the gods? On this episode of Coffee With Jim, the weekly podcast from Jim Hinckley’s America, we talk with Matt Young who has found a unique use for a 1940s service station and garage – a meadery!

Matt Young and his wife Shawndy of Hive Five Meadery, also owners of Laughlin Tours, represent a new generation of ambitious young entrepreneurs with vision that are transforming Route 66. They are also writing a new chapter in the history of Kingman, Arizona, and fueling the historic district renaissance.

If you need a bit of inspiration for a road trip, for pursuing a dream, or be part of an historic district renaissance this program is for you!
