INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN
Hiking, snowshoeing and cycling are my go-to activities outside of the brewery.
FUNNY BUSINESS
The Daily Show with Trevor Noah makes the days news a little more bearable.
FAVORITE SPOT
The wooded trails at Golden Gardens.
THE GREAT UNKNOWN
I grew up at Iowa Lakeside Laboratories, a summer research center for biologists, botanists and chemists on 100 
wooded acres on Lake Okoboji. My parents were the caretakers and my sister and I had free run of the property.
Stoup is an independently owned craft brewery and tap room in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle.
