the Brewing Guy |
Marc-André Chainey, Head BrewerLooks after everything brewing related from creating the recipes to testing the final product.
Often seen working away at the brewery crafting our beers. Bio:Marc-André has been an all-grain home brewer for over five years and is a strong advocate that proper fermentation is the defining step in creating a good end-product. His day-job as a Bridge Engineer and his active role with Alive to Strive give him an appreciation for problem solving and community involvement.
A bit of a mad scientist, he is the brains behind the challenging task of fitting a brewery in the very small space available at Waller St. His innovative nature came in handy and his imagination may have run a little wild during the design and construction of our one-of-a-kind brewery. |

George Bush, Sales Repales RepLooks after getting the beer to our patrons and getting patrons to our beer.
Always seen with a smile even when he is hauling barrels of beer around. Bio:George got his first glimpse of the hospitality industry over 10 years ago starting as a line cook and making his way into front of house management. He has helped open and manage several restaurants and bars that are considered staples on Elgin St, the ByWard Market and Rideau St.
George is a keen proponent of local craft beers having established some of the most impressive craft beer line-ups at pubs he’s managed. George is a familiar face in the local craft brewery scene where he has built a strong relationship with many sales reps in Ottawa. With his diverse experience in the pub and bar industry, George has learned a lot about the pub atmosphere and the intricate tie-ins of craft beer and people's willingness to try something new. He looks forward representing Waller St. Brewing and introducing their beer to other establishments in Ottawa. |
