Beer Birthday: Jeremy Cowan

April 24, 2018 By Jay Brooks 6 Comments

Today is Jeremy Cowan’s 49th birthday. Jeremy owns Shmaltz Brewing, makers of He’Brew. Jeremy is a good friend and we’ve known one another since he first pitched He’Brew to me at BevMo many years ago (which is detailed in Jeremy’s memoir Craft Beer Bar Mitzvah). Jeremy used to split his time between San Francisco and New York, and so I would often see him at beer events somewhat frequently, but less so now that he’s built a brick and mortar brewery in upstate New York. Join me in wishing Jeremy a very happy birthday.

    Wow look at the proof of how young I still looked… not that long ago!! Looks like I need a new He’brew shirt for photos. Thanks everyone for the well wishes. It’s Barbra Streisand and I today (43 years and running) — makes my Jewish mother oh so happy.
    Is 70 too old to be a cougar?
