Beer Birthday: Kim Sturdavant

November 5, 2024 By Jay Brooks

Today is the 45th birthday of Kim Sturdavant. He was born in Eugene, Oregon and got his professional brewing start at Marin Brewing Co. before taking over at Social Kitchen & Brewery in San Francisco in 2011. While there he invented the Brut IPA sub-style, which was a popular type of IPA for a time. He left in 2019 and for a time was brewing at Pacifica Brewery, but more recently is taking some time off to plot his next move. Kim’s a great brewer and a terrific person. Join me in wishing Kim a very happy birthday.
