Beer Birthday: Jennifer Talley

By

Today is the 54th birthday of Jennifer Talley, former brewer at Squatter’s Pub & Brewery, an oasis of good beer in Salt Lake City, Utah. Jen left Utah a few years ago to become the Brewing Operations Manager for RedHook in Woodinville, Washington, and more recently joined Russian River Brewing in Santa Rosa, California. Unfortunately, Jen left Russian River to care for her ailing mother in Grass Valley and for a time joined Brian Ford brewing at Auburn Alehouse, but more recently had opened her own place in Grass Valley, 1849 Brewing, but has now moved on to Bespoke Brewing Solutions and doing some consulting at her own Talley Fermentations. Jennifer’s a terrific brewer and one of the coolest people in the industry. Join me in wishing Jennifer a very happy birthday.
