I have been brewing professionally for over 18 years and have brewed on a variety of systems ranging from 3.5 bbls to 45 bbls. Though most of my experience was in Seattle, I moved to Virginia last year and worked as Head Brewer at Portner Brewhouse in Alexandria until they closed this June. I take pride in creating delicious and consistent beers and my passion is creating craft beers that not only satisfy existing craft beer fans but also create new ones. I am looking for a new brewing home to put my boots in the Mid-Atlantic.
