What Do Brewing and Giving Back
Have To Do With Each Other?

Whether you’re just beginning or have been brewing for a while, we offer courses to meet you wherever you are on your craft beer brewing journey.

If you’re just starting and want to learn the basics, you can learn how to brew from home without purchasing any expensive equipment! All you need is the desire to learn, a stove top, a pot, and ingredients. We will guide you through the process with our first-hand experience and offer expertise on how you can safely, efficiently, and deliciously brew your own craft beer.

Even if you’ve been in the brewing game for a while, we can teach you how to diversify your beer palate, introduce new flavors, and develop new techniques to make your favorite beers even better. Have a dream flavor you’ve always wanted to try but didn’t quite know how to make it? Our courses can help you find that perfect taste that you’ve been looking for.

How Can You Improve Diversity and
Inclusion In The Craft Beer Community?

How You Can Help
So how can you help change the tone of inclusion and diversity in craft brewing? Speak up. When you see or experience exclusion, say something about it. It’s time to have the hard conversations and to change our views about who and what a craft brewer is. Educate yourself about your local brewing community, support all of your local owners, and join us in our efforts to create a truly diverse and inclusive industry.
The Problem
The Craft Beer Community is full of amazing people from all walks of life, but there’s a major problem that many underrepresented populations are facing in the industry. When you don’t fit in the mold of a standard, stereotypical brewer, discrimination is real and can be crippling in your journey and growth. Here at Bitches ‘n Brews, we believe that every person deserves to feel welcomed and included in this community. We are striving to create change.
The Solution
To really enact change, it has to come from within the industry itself. We must be willing to have the hard conversations, call out discrimination, and support all of the diverse owners and brewers that have worked so hard to break into the brewing world.

Mikenzie is a pillar in the craft beer community. As a seasoned entrepreneur, she has developed a unique brand, "Bitches N Brews," attracting viewers from around the world, ranging from homebrewers, social media influencers, and professional brewers. Her leadership and extensive knowledge of craft beer is inspiring to all. Mikenzie is innovative in all projects she's worked on with supporting local businesses. Her IGTV and Instagram posts are insightful and educational to the community. I have had the pleasure to collaborate with her and hope to continue to do so in the future.

Mikenzie not only openly discussed and shared her brewing recipes; she also provided excellent tips and tricks based on her personal trials and errors. I could not have asked for a better friend in the brewing community. She is as open in person as she is on her website and Instagram page. Her openness and willingness to help anyone, regardless of the level of brewing experience, speaks very well to the culture of the craft beer community – which I now feel very much a part of these days. Kristen & I just finished brewing our 24th beer recently and it was a hopped up IPA! Even though this was our 24th beer; this brew would not have reached its full potential without the input and advice given from Mikenzie regarding dry-hopping techniques and a clever filtering trick when racking and prepping the beer for bottling. So, from the bottom of my keg shaped heart, I must send out many thanks and sincerest gratitude to Mikenzie for sharing her experience, knowledge, and creativity!

I started home brewing in April of this year - inspired by Mikenzie's brewing posts! I had a whole lot of questions and wasn't sure how to start. The internet is good and bad in that way - so much information that it's hard to decide what's important. Mikenzie was extremely helpful in getting me started - from answering questions about beginner equipment and kits, to what to focus on when first brewing, as well as generally making me feel confident that everything's going to be ok. In the brewing world, there's so much to learn and one can get bogged down in the many, many details, so I'm glad I had an actual person to talk to, who welcomed my beginner questions and helped me filter out things that, at least for the moment, are not important. Now that I'm 6 brews in, I upgraded my equipment and am looking forward to bigger and better brews! Thanks so much for everything, Mikenzie, for your help and endless inspiration!
