Collage of images showcasing the new Jackalope Brewing x Vanderbilt 'Conquer and Prevail Ale'
When Bailey Spaulding, JD’09, traded the mountains of Vermont for Vanderbilt’s academic landscape to study environmental law, her wildest dream of launching a craft brewery felt completely distant. Then she immersed herself in the collaborative Vanderbilt community that nurtures and challenges bold ideas. 

Today, Spaulding not only has a degree from Vanderbilt Law School, she is the founder of one of Nashville’s premier craft beer breweries, Jackalope Brewing. Starting in September 2024, Spaulding and Vanderbilt are raising a glass together with Conquer and Prevail Ale, a crisp craft beer celebrating the school’s alma mater.
