What is your favorite Confluence beer? Or, If you could only drink one beer for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Thumbwise Nitro!

Any random facts about you that you would like to share?
I once brewed a stout so strong it technically classified as  a wine. Also, I have a collection of vintage bottle openers, but I usually just use my belt buckle.

What is the one thing you can’t live without?
A well-worn leather notebook where I scribble down beer recipes, random thoughts, and the occasional haiku about hops.

What part of the rollercoaster do you usually ride- front, middle, or back?
Back. Always the back. It's where the real thrill is. Like the last sip of a barrel-aged stout- stronger, wilder, and totally worth it.

What does “craft beer” mean to you?
It's a story in a glass. It's the love child of chemistry and creativity, the one thing that brings people together without saying a word.
