Some people love beer, and then there’s Averie Swanson. A life-long love of science led Swanson down a path packed with hops and malt. What started out as a hobby eventually turned into a job at world-renowned Jester King Brewery, where she would rise the ranks to become head brewer, and then part owner. After numerous awards, accolades, and years spent traveling for Jester King, Swanson decided to head out to Chicago and brew her own private beer label, Keeping Together. Now, she combines her expertise to create a culinary-inspired mixed fermentation saison. Her dedication, creativity, and outright grit makes us proud to raise a glass and call her a part of the YETI team.
