FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Summit's Damian McConn promoted to head brewer
ST. PAUL, Minn. - (Feb. 7, 2013) - Summit Brewing Company today announces
that brewer Damian McConn will be taking on the title and role of head
brewer. McConn's new position will include oversight of the brewing
department, training of new personnel, new product development and brand
ambassadorship.
"It's very exciting to be a brewer in Minnesota as the local craft beer
scene continues to grow and expand," said McConn. "I'm honored to have the
opportunity to play an increasing role in Summit's contribution to that
growth."
McConn's interest in the brewing and distilling industries began with a high
school research project on the Cassidy Brewery and Distillery in his native
Kildare, Ireland. He then completed an honors degree in Brewing and
Distilling at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland, followed by
stints at Ireland's first craft brewery and at the Guinness brewery in
London.
After moving to Minnesota in 2000, McConn spent three years as head brewer
at Sherlock's Brewpub before joining Summit in 2003 as a production and
project brewer.
