Welcome to a special episode where we dive into the life and legacy of one of craft beer’s most community-driven pioneers—Jack Dyer.

In this episode, we explore Jack’s early life, shaped by giving and loving parents who instilled in him a deep sense of service and connection. From his formative years in a home that valued relationships and generosity, Jack’s journey was destined to be one of purpose.

You’ll hear how those values laid the foundation for his passion for bringing people together—whether through shared experiences, meaningful conversations, or, eventually, through the art of brewing.

Before Topa Topa Brewing Co. became a beloved name in Ventura, California, Jack was just a guy with a homebrew kit, a hilarious (and probably illegal) beer co-op, and a dream to build something bigger than himself.

So grab your favorite pint, settle in, and join us as we uncover the roots of Jack Dyer’s story—where love, laughter, and a whole lot of hops set the stage for a life dedicated to craft and community. Cheers!!
