Dustin Choate has worn a lot of hats. Social worker, fundraiser, corporate salesman, and even DJ… but he ultimately found his calling behind the bar of a neighborhood tavern.

In this episode, Dustin shares why he walked away from pharmaceutical sales to open Tremont Tavern, how he saw the craft beer wave coming and turned it into a community staple, and the hard lessons he learned from opening (and closing) his second restaurant, Market Street Tavern.

Dustin Choate is the owner and operator of Tremont Tavern, and co-owner of Feed Table & Tavern, Parkway Pourhouse, and Frazier Five and Dime.
