Evo’s Mike Piorunski takes beer seriously
Over the last decade or so, brewing has become a modified meritocracy. The best brewers and the beers they make continue to rise to the top, but talented brewers with specialized knowledge rise faster. When Mike Piorunski came up in the business, he was mostly knowledge and determination, but over time cultivated that into a job brewing for one Evolution Craft […]
