Law school opens the door to many possibilities. While sitting in his law school classes at the University of Georgia, Aaron Bisges, general manager at StillFire Brewing, never dreamed one of those possibilities would be opening a brewery after graduation. He worked at bars and restaurants throughout law school to help make ends meet. But it wasn’t until his uncle, John Bisges, a fellow UGA alumnus, approached him about opening and managing a brewery after graduation that he thought he could use his business knowledge from law school to turn his bar and restaurant experience into a career.

Using his UGA connections, Aaron Bisges reached out to Benny StaRomana, business consultant at the University of Georgia Small Business Development Center (UGA SBDC) for assistance writing a business plan.
