56 - Mark Ricketts, Summer in the Field | Fatherhood, growing thru honest feedback, sharing beer + building community thru shared passions

from Beer People · host Chris Horne

Mark Ricketts wants to grow. While he says that he isn’t a great brewer… yet… he has a thirst for honest feedback from the great brewers in the craft beer industry. Mark has the kind of humility that can make any person truly great: he knows his limitations and wants to push past them through honest evaluation and good old fashioned hard work. Mark brings that same passion to fatherhood and to his brewing and fermenting project, Summer in the Fields. Splitting time between Philly and Jamaica, Mark has the kind of energy that people gravitate towards. Mark has that ‘it’ factor that people want to surround themselves with. He even raises money for causes he believes in and brings people together over beer. Must be why people love to work with him and why people love to know him. Kindness, compassion, a desire to grow, and beer? Sounds like the perfect recipe.Mark's links: IGBeer People links: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠IG⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Snazzy theme music by Beer Person Gerry Mayer, check out more of his tunes ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artwork by the illustrious Lotus of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@lotiecreates⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
