In 2022 Dave Magginnis stepped down as General Manager of Buzzery to focus on his true passion and endless joy in life by pursuing his art career. "I truly feel I'm finally doing what I was meant to be doing in life...there's no going back now!" He continues to lend assistance when artwork is needed, but currently has no official role in the restaurant.

Background |
Jerry Magginnis is the founder of Buzzery. The heart of the business is his wife Beverly, who (along with Dave and Andy) directly influenced the original Buzzery recipes that you enjoy today!
Best Apiaries significantly contributes to the exceptional quality of our meads, dough and pizza sauce, as they are the source of our sweetest, most important ingredient: varietal honey. Dave Magginnis has been passionate about art creation his whole life, which made him the obvious choice for Buzzery artist. Him and his wife Angela continue to be big contributors to our success today in producing the art needed for many of our promotions, including the labels on our meads and wines. Andy Magginnis was the brains behind the brawn in detailing everything we needed to get Buzzery operational. None of it would have been possible without him. The family and business suffered a tremendous loss when Andy was killed in a car accident May 5th, 2017. |
The Beginning |
In 2008 Jerry stumbled across a new and amazing beverage called mead during his daughter's wedding. After a few years of home brewing adventures, he decided to turn it into a business.
Jerry recruited long time restaurant general manager Andy Magginnis, with over 12 years of pizza crafting experience at major corporations such as Papa Johns and Pizza Hut. He joined forces with the talents of his family (Bev's home cooking and Dave’s artistic ability) to formulate several new pizza products. This family-owned and operated business came together and created a unique dining experience that is now known as Buzzery Pizza & Mead! |
