There's no sugar coating this news, but after almost a decade, Braumeister is having to say goodbye to our longest serving employee. Our brewmaster Sheldon will be leaving us this month. While plans are already in place as the company moves forward, and an announcement of our new Brewmaster will happen soon, we wanted to take this time to share our gratitude for everything Sheldon and his family have done for Braumeister. Sheldon moved his life up from the US and helped us open, operate, and grow a brewery based on the traditions of Europe. We were able to produce beers that not only won awards, but also won over individuals from all walks of life. Sheldon was able to create drinks for enthusiasts and supposed non-beer drinkers alike and after a sip, praise for his craft often followed.
We owe a lot to Sheldon for the foundation he has helped us build and while people may say change is good, we are incredibly sad to say goodbye to a great employee and an even better friend.
We will be having a drop in at the brewery in Carleton Place Saturday June 6th from 6pm onwards if anyone would like to pop in to say their goodbyes to Sheldon and his family.
