It has been an absolute pleasure working with Gary as part of the foodguys' team. His knowledge, approach, and skillset have been invaluable while working through numerous projects together. He is one to face challenges and tough problems head-on with professionalism and vigor, while always willing to lend a hand and support others along the way. In my years at working with foodguys, Gary's many attributes such as his attention to detail, resiliency, and proactive communication are things I can always count on in any project we tackle together. I have the utmost admiration for Gary for the amazing coworker and person he is.

      Since there is not an industry listed for Craft Beer I have chosen the "Think Tank". That is what we want to do: Get people to think about beer and how to make the craft beer industry continue to grow. But remember not to over-think beer, enjoy it and use it as inspiration of great things that can be. Since there is not an industry listed for Craft Beer I have chosen the "Think Tank".
