On this very special Saturday, we are taking a mom

Today we’re pausing to wish yet another Scorpio

Today we’re pausing to wish yet another Scorpio on our team a very happy birthday, and today that is Robyn! ♏️🎊

As the Executive Assistant, Robyn takes on a lot of tasks for everyone at Baxter to keep the ship sailing smoothly and is known for treating us all with baked goods, craft coffee drinks, and lots of laughs.

We asked Robyn a couple of questions to help you get to know her a bit better...

1️⃣What was your first craft beer?
“Well, I’m not a beer drinker, but I think Logger Road would’ve been the first one back in 2019!”

2️⃣If you were a Baxter beer, what would you be and why?
“If I was a Baxter beer, I’d say probably Stowaway because it’s dependable and packs a punch!”

Cheers to you and all you do, Robyn! We hope you enjoy your day and your devil’s food cupcakes 😉

As our Sales Marketing Manager, Devin supports our sales staff in a variety of ways to promote beers and special events out in the wild, but he’s also our in-house graphic designer, building labels for limited releases and small batch brews.

Just recently, in conjunction with our friends @amherstlabel, one of Devin’s labels won an award for Best in Class for alcoholic beverage labels with the design for 13 Below, our Cold IPA ❄️ What better way to announce this exciting news than on his birthday!

We also asked Devin a couple of questions to help you get to know him a bit better…
