Base Camp Brewing Co.
Paul Thurston, Co-Founder/Head Brewer and Production Manager Base Camp Brewing Co., developed a passion for craft beer, homebrewing, and the service of the pub to the community while attending college in Eugene, Oregon. After graduating with an unrelated degree and moving to Portland, he decided to turn his passion into a career. He enrolled in the World Brewer’s Academy Diploma program, split between the Chicago campus of The Siebel Institute and Doemen’s Academy, located just outside of Munich, Germany. Upon completion he came home to Oregon and began his professional career at Rogue Ales in Newport, Oregon.
After a year in Newport, Paul was ready to come home to Portland, and did so when he was offered a job with BridgePort Brewing Co. Five years later the opportunity of a lifetime presented itself when he joined a group of childhood friends to start Base Camp Brewing Co., which will celebrate the third anniversary of their opening in November of this year. He will be giving a presentation on brewery quality control issues, with an emphasis on DIY approaches relevant to small, but rapidly growing, breweries
