Behind the Beer with Justin Crossley

June 23, 2023

Get behind the beer and behind the scenes with Justin Crossley from The Brewing Network! For the past 18 years Justin has been behind the scenes at nearly every American Homebrewers Association (AHA) event. From working closely with each organization on the AHA Governing Committee, to hosting and moderating countless interviews and panels, Justin has seen it all. Join us for a walk “backstage” as he tells us about how Zymurgy influenced his career, which brewers have inspired him the most, and how he’s seen this hobby and industry grow exponentially over the years.
