Craft Republic

Общая информация

It has been over ten years since I tasted my first Avery Maharaja Imperial IPA, and I can still remember catching that first aromatic blast as I poured it into my favorite glass. What a beauty! An intense, beautiful monster, with huge resinous hop flavor, intense hop aroma, yet a wonderful malt balance, and a vibrant deep orange color. I'll never forget that moment. It changed my direction.

Beer is personal. For me it's been a part of my life for so long it's an old friend. I've played a lot of roles over the years and drank a lot of beers. I've been account side, a brewery rep managing a large distributor network, a division director and a vice president. After so many years in the beer business, products don't often turn your head. This was a game changer.

Craft Republic is about changing the game - to embrace the entrepreneurial founders of America’s craft breweries and be an advocate for the quality, innovation, and new ideas they stand for. If it weren't for ingenuity we wouldn't be drinking sour beer from cans right now. The American business renaissance has roots here and I'm excited to see and sell what comes next.
