Jason Perkins: 

Jason is the Brewmaster and vice president of brewing operations at Allagash Brewing. He, like so many others, got his start in brewing as an avid homebrewer, following the wisdom of Charlie Papazian. That led him to his first job at Kettle House Brewing in Missoula Montana. After one year there and a 6-month stint at Gritty McDuff’s in Freeport Maine, he joined Allagash Brewing in 1999 and has been here since!
