My favorite part of the processs
creating the wort.
So that's the sweet sugar water
that the yeast goes and eats.
So that's essentially a brew day 
So that's the process of taking
all your raw materials and turning
that into what will eventually
become beer. So that's the actually 
combining the malt, the water,
the hops, and the yeast and putting 
all those simple elements together.
To then create something really
complex and diverse out of that.

I've always had an interest in
brewing and we found some
really good partners locally. Other 
UT grads actually. Who wanted
to start a brew pub and it just
worked out really well.

The best part is just getting to
iterate and iterate and iterate
and try to make a better and 
better product. That's whats fun
about what I do. We were talking
earlier and anybody can make a
decent beer once, but doing it n
and again and again. Trying to to just
inch it better and better and better
is the real fun part of my day or week
or the last couple years actualy

I think biosystems was a great
degree for this. It's a design, build,
test degree. Working with vendors 
can call a sanitary pump vendor
and be able to have an intelligent
conversation about seals or
impellers or whatever. Pump curves.
Learning how to read the instrumentation
manuals, the ph meters, or the
temperature controllers for our
fermenters and all that stuff.  
Just understanding a little bit about
a lot of different pieces has made
all the difference here.

I was talking to another biosystems
graduate yesterday. We were
talking about what a great degree
program it is, because it just touches
everything. And it just equips to
go out and do a lot of different things.
It's sometimes hard to explain to people
what the degree is, but if you can get
in the door. They teach you how do
everything it's amazing.

My name is Will Rutemeyer I
