The April SYP Social will be held on the 13th, 5pm – 7pm at the Starkville Country Club, 1800 South Montgomery Street and will feature a Community/Customer Appreciation Event sponsored by Mitchell Distributing.
Anheuser-Busch Brewmaster George Reisch will be on hand for a beer tasting (see his bio attached below.) Free food and beverages will be provided. All are welcome, even if you don’t care to taste the beer. This will be a great chance to check out the Starkville County Club and to network with other young professionals.
George F. Reisch, a fifth generation brewmaster by trade, is a Brewmaster at Anheuser-Busch, Inc and is the Director of Brewmaster Outreach for Anheuser-Busch.
With his family brewery, Reisch Brewing Co., of Springfield, Ill. in operation from 1849 to 1966, Reisch fell in love with the art and skill of brewing at an early age. Always an avid home brewer, Reisch attended the University of Wisconsin to gain his Bachelor of Science in Food Chemistry while working at Joseph Schlitz Brewing Co., as a brewery worker, and at Miller Brewing Co. as research assistant during the summer months.
Upon graduation in 1979, Reisch was placed in the Anheuser-Busch Corporate Management Training Program before being promoted to Brewing Supervisor at the company’s Los Angeles Brewery in 1980. There, Reisch also held Brewing Technical Coordinator, Assistant Brewmaster, and Staff Brewmaster positions before being transferred to Corporate Brewing at Anheuser-Busch headquarters.
During his tenure at Anheuser-Busch, Reisch has traveled to Mexico, Brazil, and Japan on a variety of brewing-related projects and has also assisted with “New Beer Brand” development. He has also hosted hundreds of “Brewmaster Dinners” in the United States and has taught hundreds of brewing schools. Most recently, Reisch has overseen Budweiser production at the five Budweiser-producing breweries located throughout Canada.
Reisch serves as President of the Master Brewers Association of the Americas (MBAA). He is a tasting judge at both the World Beer Cup and Great American Beer Festival.
He also serves as a member of the Board of Advisors for the North American Brewers Association (NABA). Reisch was named “Large Company Brewmaster of the Year” at the Great American Beer Festival in Denver in 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003.
Reisch has appeared on several TV and radio programs. He and his wife Kathy have four grown children and reside in Wildwood, Missouri.
