Bryan Suechting is a 33-year-old from Folsom, Calif., and is currently working on completing the science courses needed to get into a science based-master’s program.<\/p>\n
Suechting has a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology from UCLA, and due to not being able to market the degree well, was unable to find a career in the field. For the past two years Bryan has been working as a bartender at Yard House in Waikiki.\u00a0<\/strong>During that time he learned how to brew beer and has won two first-place and second-place medals.\u00a0<\/p>\n Bryan fell in love with Hawai\u02bbi after visiting his brother in 2017. The decision to move to O\u02bbahu was based on finding a location that would calm the symptoms of eczema, and where the brewery market was up and coming.<\/p>\n “In the week and a half I was here, my eczema cleared up, it was the humidity.
