PAUL, Owner/Brewer
Paul's passion for craft beer brewing started as a hobby in America and led to a profession in Munich. Starting a business outside of one's home country is daunting- starting a brewery in Munich's brewing district is, well, a little crazy! Paul figured he wasn't the only one missing a diversity of beer styles here, and he was right!
You can find Paul bouncing between the brewery and taproom, hosting tastings, and serving our beer at festivals.
JEN, Owner/Sales Operations
Jen manages customer facing aspects of the business: the taproom, tasting events, marketing, social media, and keeping the front of house operations running smoothly.
She is a connector, working with local partners and networks to support the growth of Munich's craft beer community.
Her favorite place is in the taproom interacting with our customers.
Jen tells the complete story of Higgins Ale Works on the Germany Expat Business Show Podcast!
BOB, Head Brewer
Bob has brewed with Higgins Ale Works since the beginning and was integral to our transition as a commercial brewery.
Bob's love of craft beer began in his home town of Sacramento, CA Munich is where he honed his skills over his more than 20 year residency.
His research on beer style histories and ingredients from around the globe influence our flagship and seasonal ales.
Feel free to ask Bob about the beer styles and what's on tap.
ANNETTE, Beertender
Annette is a friendly dynamo that keeps customers coming back. Her engaging manner makes everyone feel welcome.
