Beer Birthday: John Bryant

June 14, 2025 By Jay Brooks

no-li-red
Today is my friend John Bryant’s 58th birthday. I first met John when he was with Deschutes Brewery in Bend, Oregon. Several years ago he migrated to Odell Brewing in Fort Collins to work his magic on them, and then a few years ago he joined Dale at Oskar Blues. He then left Oskar Blues and disappeared for a time, finally re-emerging in Spokane, Washington with the then-newly rebranded No-Li Brewing. Join me in wishing John a very happy birthday.

    I love their canned Imperial Stout. Ten Fidy is one of the best that I’ve had in a can.
