How and when did you first become interested in beer?

My dad started home brewing in the 1990s. When I started college, naturally, I stole as much of his old brewing stuff as I thought I could get away with. I became really interested in beer in about 2006, when I started getting nerdy with home brewing.

What do you think you bring to the brewing game that makes you stand out?

A full beard, complete with special microorganisms that work together to give me Beer-Sense (kind of like Spider-Sense™, but for beer).

Top five beers you’ve sampled recently (only include ONE of yours)

1. Whiskey barrel aged Bavarian Hefeweizen by Pueblo Vida
2. Love’s Armor by Sante Adarius
