  • Skip Norfolk (Co-Founder)

    Back in the 90’s when the Craft Beer scene was starting, Skip was “wrenching” (Crew Chief) in the sport of Supercross and Motocross. (Supercross is dirt bike racing in major stadiums around the country, Motocross is closed course off-road motorcycle racing). Skip was an integral part of 5 national titles, 1 world title (American Honda Racing) and 2 regional (Peak Pro Circuit Racing) “I was fortunate to be around some amazing individuals and teams.

    When the 2000’s rolled around the Craft Beer scene in SoCal was taking off, he was all in for Craft Beer, so much so that he started home brewing with his buddies. He spent the next two decades in the action sport industry, where he developed technical Competition Racing Products for Motocross, Supercross, and Auto Racing. Most recently Skip was Race Director for the Traders Racing / Club MX Racing Team, where he was able to play in the dirt with kids every day.

  • Joe Cuozzo (BrewMaster)

    In 2002, driven to become one of the best brewers in the world, Joe again found himself as a head brewer in the growing SD craft beer market. Joe would enter and win multiple GABF medals and a world beer cup gold medal. During this time, he restarted the SD Brewers Guild (2002-2005). Working with the American Brewers Guild, he took on apprentices, who now have become medal winning brewers and successful brewery owners. From 2002 – 2018 he was instrumental in building the culture and marketing programs for all the SD local breweries as well as getting multiple start up breweries running around the country. Joe continued to brew medal winning beers and introducing many “best practices” that are now commonplace in successful breweries.
