Finnegan's Hires Insight's Ryan Mihm

Take a look at this:

That's a larger system they'll be using, so they now will have some ability and scale with which to branch out now whereas there were some limits to what they could manage vis-a-vis brands and formats, back when they were a client of Summit Brewing.

 

I'm curious to see what kind of beers he decides to brew adds to their portfolio. More Belgian inspired beers would be cool. I am also wondering who will take over as head brewer at Insight.

 

Well, they have the job posted:

Does anyone know what the environment is like at Insight - what it is like to work there or what the owners are like?

 

Its Dull as a Taproom, brews are average+ wont ever go to a winter Anniversary again and stand in line for $20/per bottles.

 

I think he's asking what their working environment is like.

 

I think it also speaks to the taproom / brewery environment, kind of like a store.. Do you know what i mean now?

 

I know people their on both the brewing and sales side, and I've never heard anything bad about the working environment.

Brewers jump from brewery to brewery all the time. I know most of them aren't head brewers (from what I've been told most head brewers are in noncompete agreements), but I still don't think we should make too much of this move.

 

Just saw that one of the owners calls himself 'Maestro', which is.....weird?

Maybe I'm old school, but that sure strikes me as more than a little vain.

 

Wonder if they'll have a rum BA stout?
