A product of Clinton, NY (As Jesse says "A quaint little drinking village on the outskirts of Utica"), Jesse quickly developed a passion for all things beer. While studying at SUNY Oswego, he spent time working at a beer distribution center and one summer working as a Marketing Assistant with Brewery Ommegang in Cooperstown, NY. Upon graduation he decided to make his way west to Boulder in search of a position within the walls of a craft brewery. Once he arrived in Boulder, Jesse visited several breweries and tasted countless beers, only to discover that Avery was where he belonged. After pestering us in the tasting room every day for nearly a year, we decided to take him on as an Assistant Brewer in October of '07. Neither of us have looked back since.
