221: Chris Winn, Tradesman Brewing (Charleston, SC)

Chris Winn says that customer service is his love language, and if you've ever interacted with him in his role as co-owner at Tradesman Brewing in Charleston, SC, or at any one of the various events the brewery has supported since opening in 2014, you believe him. He knows the power of community and communication, and he asserts that both can happen over a cold pint of beer. He spent four years at Charleston's Palmetto Brewing before opening Tradesman, then earlier in his career another seven as event evangelist at powerhouse New Belgium Brewing. He's built a career talking beer, and that means he's the type of guy to see beyond the bubbles and the brewer's yeast to something more.
