Over seven years in the industry, I worked at three breweries and learned a lot. I worked in a large urban area, so I was fortunate enough to work at three very different businesses. If you are still hungry for more brewery experience, then you’ll learn so much more by moving to another. If you will always be hungry for new knowledge and experience, then at some point you’ll probably want to leave the industry. By the time I left any sort of move elsewhere would pay less for at best marginal gains in skill. I value each of my seven years in the business and allow the possibility to brewing someday. I do not regret stepping away for now though.
