The founders of the forthcoming Crosstown Brewing Co. have turned to Kickstarter to raise money for the brewery they told The Daily News earlier this year they want to open in the Crosstown neighborhood next year.

From the crowdfunding page:
“Our founders say it all the time. “Memphis is a beer town!” We believe that the people of this town want and deserve more variety and quality and we think we’re the people to give it to them. By placing our brewery in the Crosstown neighborhood, we really want to help build a new and exciting community in this city. Turning our dream into a reality is a daunting task, though, and we really need some support from our fellow Memphians to take care of some of the initial expenses of our adventure. By contributing to Crosstown Brewing Company, you’re helping to the ensure the success of a business that will always focus on giving back to the community that we call home.”
