Brett Croft
Brewmaster
As a second-generation beer baron, Brett pretty much grew up in a brewery. He began his career over a decade ago on the marketing and sales side of the business. After a few years working in the office, he decided to take his passion for beer and apply it to the arts and science of brewing.
Brett received his formal brewing education from Siebel World Brewing Academy, where he studied in Chicago and in Germany. After brewing school, he perfected his craft at breweries both large and small within Ontario, before becoming Brewmaster at Stockyards Brewing.
