Kyle Krebsbach, Assistant Beer Manager
Kyle joined our beer staff team in September 2008. He is a Minnesotan originally, but has lived in Colorado since 2004. Kyle graduated with honors this past spring from the University of Colorado-Boulder. He is planning to continue school with hopes of earning a Psy. D. Kyle came to the department with little knowledge of beer and was once heard recommending Coors Light to someone who wanted some good beer. To say the least, he has come a long way since then. Shortly after being hired into the department, he dove in head first to the wonders of craft beer. He loves hops, but enjoys all styles of beer, as long as it is well crafted. There are few beers in our vast selection of which Kyle has not tried. We consider Kyle our resident beer snob and craft expert; he is our go to guy for anything beer. Talk to Kyle and he'll get you what you need!
