Master Distiller
I learned the art of brewing in San Francisco whilst working in I.T. I couldn’t come home every weekend so helped out at a brew pub and got hooked. So much so, that I opened my own UK brewery upon my return. Whilst working in the States I visited a couple of small distilleries and thought it an ideal add-on to a brewery.
My time when I’m not distilling is split between morning walks on the beach with Mabel (the dog), sailing, fishing, and fixing up an old house.
Oh and at night I like to keep the neighbours ‘entertained’ with my tenor sax.
I am also camera shy!
Thinks he’s the Boss
I started in the industry before I’d even left school.
40+ years with Bass and Marston’s (Sales Director at both), and one of the owners of Freedom Brewery.
Beer and pubs, that’s all I know and still I call it work.
LOVE MY JOB!!
All things operational and anything else the others can’t be bothered to do
I didn’t go to university, instead I got a job at a brewery. Some 5+ years later I can safely say I graduated with flying colours!!
I loved working in the industry until I was made redundant. Then, life took me in the direction of I.T.
I feel like I’m now back where I belong.
