Ep. 163 - Gretchen Langfeldt of Switchback Brewing

"Over the summer I spent a delightful evening at Switchback, the venerable Vermont Brewery and got to talking with Gretchen Langfeldt over beers and during a tour of the brewery. At the time I was bummed that I didn’t have my mobile recording kit with me. She’s here this week via zoom for the show and I couldn’t be happier. 

After graduating Notre Dame with an engineering degree she started working at Switchback one day a week and then eventually full time. 

Today she’s the engineer and brand marketing leader for the brewery. 

We’ll talk about engineering, and marketing, plus beer and employee ownership, and yes true believers we’ll also get into Rauchbier. But I started off by asking about the physical building and the equipment inside. As you’ll hear it’s truly a special place worth many visits."
