Rob Rob Cartwright brewed his first batch of beer at age 14 in Victoria, British Columbia with his mom, Marilyn. Along with brewing beer, his mom taught him how to make wine, bread, jam, and brew a mean cup of tea - the English essentials. ![]() After moving to Austin to attend the University of Texas, Rob and his friends chipped in for a basic homebrew kit. It wasn't long before Rob knew he really wanted to be a brewer. He switched from studying accounting to philosophy, and got his first brewery job at the Copper Tank in 1994. Rob learned from his mentors, and developed into an award-winning brewer. As philosopher-brewers are known to do, he began dreaming of brewing different beers, and of opening a brewery. When Rob met Amy in 2000, he met a fellow dreamer and beer lover. They camped their way through Colorado visiting breweries in 2002. They got married, and spent their honeymoon tasting beers in Salzburg and Munich. And by 2003, they had a plan. Rob's favorite beer is Freestyle, which he always has handy playing disc golf. Rob also enjoys cooking, barbequing, gardening, and camping. |
