Jeff Poirot

Jeff Poirot has been home brewing for 15 years and has spent not only his vacations but any time he can spare reading about brewing, studying what others say about being a better brewer but also contemplating new batches to brew with Nick. Jeff attributes his success as a brewer to his skills as a cook which enables him to know what a beer is going to taste like before it is brewed and to his desire to try new things and “push the boundaries” of styles. Jeff is a member of Draft Punk homebrew club and brews regularly with Nicholas McCoy.
