Trained in the restaurant industry, Colby honed his palate on fine wine and food through his years with the famous Ruth’s Chris Steak House. As an avid home cook, he began formulating his own recipes, which would eventually lead him into the incredible creations he now produces for Ballast Point brewing. At his R&D facility in Little Italy, Colby pulls ideas from chefs, writers and other brewers to make some of the most interesting creations that local craft beer lovers have tasted, including the Calico with guajillo peppers and the wildly popular Habanero Sculpin.
