Tim O’Bryan is our Brewer…at this writing he has just put another batch of the Six Foot Blonde in the fermenter…SFB is our work crew’s favorite Big Woods Beer and will be on Tap #1. Tim hails from Charlestown Indiana. He doubles as the Innkeeper at the Allison House Inn on Jefferson Street. He’s married to Megan O’Bryan and is often seen in town accompanied by his Boston Terrier, Duke. He began brewing a few years ago with Jeff McCabe…Jeff is quick to say that despite his 20 year head start, Tim quickly surpassed him as a brewer. Tim brews the way he cooks (he is an outstanding Chef), which means he balances a methodical and precise approach to brewing with a flair for experimentation and original ideas. As you might expect of someone associated with Big Woods, Tim is an avid outdoorsman…an Eagle Scout, he is an accomplished paddler, fisherman and he’s a dead shot with a muzzle loader. Always a quick thinker, Tim once rescued himself from a ‘quicksand’ bog up in the wilds of Ontario, by lassoing himself to a nearby tree. His favorite beer is stout and his original recipe is on Tap #6…TIM”S STOUT is smooth and carefree as it goes down!
