The 4 Rules Ringler Follows to Drive Cedar Springs & Küsterer Brauhaus Forward
In this Brewer Mag Q&A, David Ringler of Cedar Springs/Küsterer Brauhaus shared: “I started homebrewing in 1987 and started brewing professionally in Germany in 1994, where I worked under a female Braumeisterin (which was unusual at the time), Angel Würges. I was genuinely touched by the brotherhood of the community. I could visit other breweries, as a foreign-born kid, and introduce myself and who I worked for, and I would be welcomed as a colleague. I find the same sense of community here in West Michigan, which was completely different from my time away from the industry in the financial world for 15 years. My goal was to get back into this industry and I’m so thankful that it’s worked out.”
