I began my career a decade ago as a production quality control scientist for a biotech company and, in 2022, decided to merge my passions for chemistry and beer by joining the brewing industry. While I first learned the brewing process on a 10-barrel brewhouse at Battery Steele Brewing Company, I next sought to work…

As we embark on our 14th year at Baxter, there are so many things to be thankful for, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share so many more to come. When I took on the role of President of Baxter Brewing in 2019, we were already in the process of rebranding to ensure our…

I started Baxter Run Club because I wanted others to feel empowered by…

Jenn Lever, President of Baxter Brewing, recently spoke on a panel regarding Maine’s brewing trends with Maine Public Radio alongside other Maine brewing representatives. Together, panelists and VIP callers discuss beer styles, gluten free options, non-alcoholic varieties, and collaboration among Maine breweries as a whole!   “Every time you choose a Maine craft brewery over…

My first craft-beer love was the IPA. I still remember my first time drinking a Stowaway –it was unlike anything I’d tried before. Complex but balanced, sweetness and bitterness in perfect harmony. As I aged, so did the craft-beer scene, and gradually a new style of IPA (New England IPA) came onto the scene. As…

Hundreds of different styles of beer, representing cultures from all over the world, ultimately come down to the same four ingredients: water, malted grain, hops, and yeast.
