What do you do for your company?

As an Account Manager and New Business Development Manager, I act as a product owner to my clients, ensuring that we deliver great service and people.  This requires that I have an intimate understanding of our client’s product(s), services, technology stack and culture, it’s awesome! I’m also our house chef, and ride more MTB trails than anyone else here…

 

Tell us about the beer styles you are submitting this year? 

BWB is submitting a Bacon & Bourbon Smoked Red Ale.  Our beer is a malt-forward ale, designed to emphasize both the sweet and savory treat of, you guessed it, BACON

We call it:  Sweet Wilbur Swine Ale.  Wilbur is the name of our retirement plan, and we also hope that this recipe is our ticket to retirement!  Wilbur is also that ‘humble’, ‘terrific’ pig from E.B. Webb’s famous novel, Charlotte’s Web.

 

How and where did you brew your beer?

Our team brewed our beer at Altitude HomeBrew Supply.  We learned so much! (Thank you, Steve.)  We started with a base Red Ale and infused savory, bourbon-soaked, smoked bacon and a touch of sweet maple syrup, a match made in hog heaven!  Plus, we did it blindfolded with our hands hog-tied behind our backs.

 

What do you plan on doing with this year’s championship Trophy?

We will start by drinking some “Sweet Wilbur Swine Ale” out of the trophy!  From there, we’ll march with it down 16th Street Mall like it’s the Stanley Cup. Once it makes it home to BWBacon headquarters, we will sing Queen’s epic, “We are the Champions” and place it alongside our other many trophies for pig-excellence in our ‘Swine Shrine’, where it will live forever behind a bullet-proof glass case
