Beaverhead Brewing Co

Beaverhead Brewing Company is owned and operated by Brett Maki.

Brett was born and raised in Dillon. His brewing career started in Seattle in 2001 with a homebrew kit his wife purchased for him for his birthday, three short months later he found himself working for Pyramid Brewery in Seattle, making soda, driving forklift, and washing tanks. There he learned the trade of cellar work and brewing beer.

When Pyramid closed its doors in Seattle, Brett moved on to work for a small brewery in south Seattle. He soon became head brewer and was put in charge of training new employees and developing new beers.

In 2011 he and his family moved back to Dillon, there the town needed a brewer and Brett needed a brewery.
