How long have you been working at TexMalt: Owner/ Operations Director, 6 years
Favorite beer: Pilsner Urquell
Favorite Whiskey/bourbon: Ironroot Promethean Bourbon
Favorite pastime: Relaxing at home with my wife, baby girl, Labrador Retriever and Dachshund. Nothing is sweeter than spending time with family!
Favorite activity at the malt house: Hanging out with the team over some good beer or whiskey after a hard day in the malt house. Physical days can be rough at the malt house and by the end of the day there is nothing better than some comradery and fresh cold beer alongside a pour of Texas whiskey.
Least favorite activity at the malt house: It is tough to say because almost every activity at TexMalt is rewarding in some way. However, just like a professional brewer, a maltster is a glorified janitor. All of the malt production processes create a mess so it is never ending!
