Suffice to say that:
Sandy and Vicki Savage always dreamed of having a brewpub that would
house their beer
collection. The place (or sacred space) they created required numerous
tries, trials and
friends before they opened their doors in beautiful suburban Deming
in December 1997,
now home of Whatcom County’s first and only Beer Shrine.
Sandy Savage is a graduate of Seibel Brewing Technology's Class
of 1989 and a former head
brewer at Triple Rock Brewery in Berkeley, CA. He was the original
brewer for our operation and
developed most of the recipes currently in use. Sandy designed
the brewing system to be
dedicated to true-to-style British Ales. He keeps close watch
to ensure brewing integrity.
Vicki Savage is in charge of the front-house operations, who,
with the assistance of a small staff
of servers, combines 22 years of customer service and restaurant
experience in assuring your
visit is comfortable, friendly and fun.
Eric Jorgensen has been in charge of Brewery Operations since
2000. Eric started in our kitchen
and has years of home brew experience. Today, he monitors day-to-day
brewing operations and
quality control. It's a labor of love, sheer will and creativity.
Todd Urness, our Kitchen Manager, joined us in 1999 and manages
often-hectic kitchen
operations with the assistance of our trained kitchen professionals.
It’s a labor of patience,
inspiration and endurance.
Our staff is on a fast-track to sainthood!
