Hello,
I've recently moved back to the United States from 2 years working as a brewer in Norway. Had to move back because of visa reasons and changing management at the brewery. Eagerly on the search for my next brewing adventure!
heres the old resume.

I recently moved back to Portland from Norway where I worked as a brewer at Det Lille Bryggeriet (The Little Brewery), a 15bbl brewery. I performed all aspects of brewery production, including brewing, bottling, packaging, fermentation management, CIP, sanitation, deliveries, brewery tours, and talks. I also worked on starting a small farm brewery project in Norway on Bjørnstad Gård. Sadly it was not completed during the duration of my work visa, however I built a small 1/2bbl brewing system and was working on developing recipes for the farm. I am seeking employment in brewing in the Portland area and am interested in any openings that will further my experiences and learning.
