This week our podcast guest is Gary Fish, President and Founder of Deschutes Brewing. Gary started Deschutes in 1988 in Bend, Oregon, before Craft Beer was called "Craft Beer."

Deschutes is now available in 35 states and is considered one of the larger brands in craft beer, which comes with new challenges and so the odyssey continues.
