Brew Crew

Brewmaster/President: Todd Marcus

Todd was an avid homebrewer and gainfully employed electrical engineer until one (now infamous) night in late 1995 when he “experienced” a brewer’s gathering at RedBones in Somerville. The rest, as they say is history……The brewing journey from there:

  • Long Trail Brewing Company, Bridgewater Corners, VT
  • Sunday River Brewing Company, Bethel, ME
  • John Harvard’s BrewHouse, Springfield, PA
  • Hyannisport Brewing Company, Hyannis, MA
  • Hyport Brewing Company, Hyannis, MA
  • CAPE COD BEER, Hyannis MA


Business Manager: Beth Marcus

Beth has been with Cape Cod Beer since its inception – when it was just an office in the basement of the Marcus house. She holds the official title of Business Manager – because there was no great way to describe all the stuff she does around the brewery – that includes the finances, marketing, retail and so much more. She and Todd are also the proud parents of two growing boys: Jacob (12) and Harrison (10).

 

 

Lead Brewer: Jeff Rowe

Jeff comes to Cape Cod Beer by way of Boston where he worked at Mass Bay Brewing Company (Harpoon) for the last six years.  He’s new to the Cape but knows the coastal culture well, as he grew up in Gloucester, MA.  In his downtime Jeff enjoys playing music, reading, and spending time with his beautiful wife Alissa and their unruly cat Ignatius. He’s looking forward to making great beer and settling into the Cape!

 

 

Brewer: Corey Peterson

We met Corey long before he officially came to work for Cape Cod Beer.  Affectionately known as a “beer geek” Corey loves everything about beer and claims to have found his dream job when he began work at Cape Cod Beer.  An accomplished home-brewer, husband and father of one particularly adorable young boy named Ellis, Corey started as a production assistant in late ’09 and was promoted to Brewer in 2011.

 

 

Assistant Brewer: Chris Meyer

Chris has been at Cape Cod Beer since 2009.  He started as our “distribution guy”.  In May of 2012 Chris he became an Assistant Brewer.  Chris is a recipient of The Greg Noonan Scholarship from The American Brewers Guild.

 

 

 

Production Assistant:  Vilija Bizinkauskas

 

Vilija came to work with Cape Cod Beer as a part of the summer brew crew in 2011. After graduating Framingham State College and receiving her license as a Registered Dietitian she decided beer is just as nutritious and is back with us as the production assistant. When not at the brewery, she enjoys snowboarding, going to concerts, traveling, touring breweries and watching horror movies. Vilija is excited to be living on Cape Cod and  is looking forward to getting her residential beach sticker!

Outside Sales:  Alan O’Campbell

Alan O’Campbell moved to Cape Cod in 2008 with his wife and two children so that his kids could grow up running free on the beautiful shores of Wellfleet! Many of you may know him from his last adventure as the proprietor of the former Grain & Vine Spirit Shoppe in Hyannis.

However, his endless fascination with craft beer began long before that in the stock room of Downtown Wine and Spirits where his eyes were opened to the wonderful world of craft beer. After 20 years in retail, he is thrilled to finally be working in brewery supporting a cause he loves – fresh local beer for good solid people! His favorite drinking vessel is a mason jar!

Retail Associate: Austen Rumberger

Austen joined the team in April 2012 taking over the inside sales position, after years in Retail.  While you can take the man out of retail, you can’t take the retail out of the man – and after a summer at inside sales, he has moved “downstairs” to help David with our growing retail business.  When not at work you can find him fly fishing for stripers, riding his bike, grilling, bowling, or relaxing at home with his dog Grady. Austen grew up in upstate New York and has been homebrewing with his father since he was young.

 

 

Retail Associate: Tyler Bittrich

A native Cape Codder and a graduate of U-Mass Amherst, Tyler joined Cape Cod Beer in April 2012 to help Dave with retail.  Tyler also gives tours and tastings and he loves to share his passion for craft beer with customers.  When not at the brewery you can find him surfing, stand-up paddle boarding, hiking, relaxing at the beach or homebrewing.
