Dogfish Welcomes Hops Guru Jim Boyd

Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats in Rehoboth Beach, DE is proud to announce the hiring of Jim Boyd as General Manager of the 11-year old brewpub. Jim comes to Dogfish from eight years in the American hop industry, first with Yakima Chief, then Hop Union.

Dogfish Head President Sam Calagione looks forward to Jims contributions and knows he will fit right in, Im confident that, if anyone is a perfect fit for Dogfish, its Jim Boyd. Jim has become as much a friend as he has been a supplier over the years. Aside from our obvious shared obsession with hops, continues Calagione, Ive learned we have much more in common - most importantly, we share a desire to do world class work and treat our customers, co-workers, and fellow beer lovers with the respect and attention they deserve.

Coming directly from the world of American hops, Jim is very familiar with Dogfish Head, I have for years been involved with the Dogfish Head experience as a supporter/ supplier and have been infected with the off-centeredness of the folks at Dogfish explains Boyd. During my time in the world of hops, I have been fortunate to be involved with the Dogfish Head brewing staff both at the Milton facility and the Rehoboth Beach brewpub during development of new beer formulations, continues Boyd, having the inside track of the Dogfish approach will be invaluable to me in my new position. Besides, adds Jim, It is rare in life to be able to actually get paid to do something that you are truly passionate about, for me that is great beer, the opportunity to share it with like minded people, and passion for good food in a fun environment.
