Jason Frimmel, World of Beer

In honor of Entrepreneurship Month, we’re highlighting young professionals in our community who made their dreams a reality.

Jason Frimmel is a Tallahassee native who has grown up in the hospitality industry. Jason’s love for a good craft beer led to the opening of Tallahassee’s newest craft beer bar.

What was your “I think this is going to work” moment?

The “I made it moment” was as soon as we received the loan approval. At that point, I knew the business would be in operation soon. It was very exciting to open the doors to the public for the first time on October 5th.

What has been your proudest moment?

Seeing my team get through the crazy first week made me very proud. It was such a busy week and the team really pulled together to work as one unit.

Entrepreneurship in one word? 

Drive

Biggest achievement so far?

My biggest career achievement is definitely opening World of Beer.

Biggest career fail?

Attempting to purchase two failing Subway locations. Subway is just a tough brand.

Where do you see yourself in five years?

I envision being a multi-unit franchisee with World of Beer in five years.

Why Tallahassee?

I have lived here my entire life. I love it here and enjoy reflecting on how much the city has grown since I was a kid.

What’s one piece of advice you’d give someone starting out?

Never give up. Push through the challenges and get it done.
