About Us

Brew Master Brandon Judd

Toronto-born and raised, Brandon has worked in restaurants throughout his entire adult life. In 2012 at Indie Ale House, he started his career brewing beer. After three years there, he moved to Godspeed Brewery from 2016-2018. During that time, he acquired his diploma from VLB Berlin is his accreditation as a Brew Master.

In 2018, Brandon came to Avling as the Brew Master where he works with the team to create a wide variety of brews, from special barrel-aged beers, to unique sours using 99% Ontario ingredients, to our core line. Brandon’s vision can be summed up: "German techniques, North American beers.”
