The Brewers Association is pleased to announce the addition of Chris Bogdanoff of Anaheim Brewery to the Safety Subcommittee. Chris Bogdanoff is a diploma brewer from American Brewers Guild and certified draft technician from MicroMatic. He has been brewing for 9 years including 6 years at two different microbreweries and lots of home-brewing. In addition to his passion for brewing, he has a college background in human resources that gives him a nose for compliance and the motivation for training and development.

“In my 6 years working for microbreweries I have seen and experienced some very unsafe practices which has given me a sense of duty to help make breweries safer.” Chris added, “I hope to work toward educating brewers and perpetuating a culture of safety in the brewing industry for brewers of all sizes.”

The Safety Subcommittee has produced several resources, including on-line safety video training and best management guidance available in the Best Practices section of brewersassociation.org.
