Show Notes
Jenny Pfafflin is the marketing and creative manager at Dovetail Brewery in Chicago. She’s also one of the four brewers on staff. That means she gets to spend her days talking about, thinking about, making, and drinking some of the most traditional and flavorful beers made in the U.S. today.
If you follow Dovetail on
social media it is Pfafflin and her passion for brining forth a realistic drinking experience in a digital format.
Before Dovetail, she was an exam manager at the
Cicerone Certification program, and is even an Advanced Cicerone herself.
Working at Dovetail Pfafflin can really explore her love of tradition, the beer industry and beer service, all things we talk about during the course of this episode. But we start off by going all the way back to the beginning.
