Earlier this week I was in Manchester, New Hampshire for the state’s brewers guild conference and I had a chance to sample my way through a lot of what the state is currently producing.  This was especially true during my conversation with Devin Bush of Wild Bloom Beer. 

He’s the Head Brewer & Co-Founder - along with his wife Beth Ibitz =  of the Littleton, NH brewery which recently opened a taproom with a focus on Saisons, Belgians, and Lagers. 

He’s a graduate of the BrewLab at the University of Sunderland, has certification from the International Guild of Brewers and Distillers, and brewing for Bridge Road Brewers in Australia among other breweries across Europe and the US. He was also awarded the inaugural NH Brewer of the Year in 2020 and also serves on the NHBA Education Committee. 

What is clear from the conversation – where he opened several beers along the way – he has a passion for local ingredients – actual local ingredients.
