It was 2011 that Geordan Saunders, the founder and head brewer of The Napanee Beer Company first discovered brewing; standing over a boiling pot on the stove of his tiny Toronto kitchen, he fell in love. “I remember looking up at my wife,” Geordan says, “and telling her ‘I’m going to do this for the rest of my life!'” From that moment on, Geordan was obsessed with one thing: making the very best beer possible.
What followed was years of experimental brewing, voracious reading and never-ending research on the art and science of brewing. Soon Geordan was entering amateur brewing competitions across Canada, and winning medals for style after style; within a year, Geordan was among the top ranked amateur brewers in Canada.
