Brewer's Corner

Our Brewmaster

Starting as a home brewer because he thought it seemed “cool” to make your own beer, Rik Marley entered the brewing world without knowing it would one day contribute to his biggest professional accomplishments (with many more anticipated). After a day of skiing in 2005, Marley went for dinner at the Woodstock Inn & Brewery in Lincoln, NH, where he would eventually have his first brewing position. While working as an Assistant Brewer at the Woodstock Inn and Italian Oasis simultaneously, he attended the American Brewer’s Guild, which offers a craft brewer’s apprenticeship program and education in intensive brewing science and engineering.

Rik came to us in September of 2009 with more passion in his pinky for making beer than most of us do for our daily jobs. “I wake up and get to make beer. I love my job! How many people can truly say that?” Marley has said. Marley shows great dedication to the art of brewing and his creativity has led us down untouched paths like brewing our first lager, a potato beer, and even one of our new favorite traditions: Firkin’ Friday!
