Inside Cerebral Brewing’s Next Pour
Running a brewery used to be a simple proposition: make great beer, open the doors and let the taps do the talking. But Anne Abrahamson says that model is outdated. As the director of operations at Cerebral Brewing, one of Denver’s most recognizable breweries, Abrahamson helps oversee the business behind the beer. Since joining Cerebral in 2019, she’s helped the company grow from one crowded taproom off Colfax to three locations across the Denver area, with a fourth on the way. On this episode of the Voices of Experience podcast, she shares what it takes to run a modern craft brewery, why hospitality has become central to the beer business, and why Cerebral is focused on evolution over expansion.
