Brewing Recipes provided courtesy of Keith Armstrong
Keith has supervised the brewing of 10's of millions of hL.'s of beers worldwide, including work with several major brewers and the brewing of many well known brands (some under license). This includes working with a number of top brews from England, Germany, the U.S.A., Australia, Ireland, Holland, South-East Asia, Italy, Canada and New Zealand.
Keith and his family are New Zealand citizens who were born in Canada. Having worked across Canada, including stints as far afield as the High Arctic Islands, and after some early forays into bartending and restaurant management as well as oil rigs and surveying, Keith joined the brewing industry in 1979.
Keith has a B.Sc. Biology and a B.Comm., as well having graduated from the Siebels Institute in 1981.
He is a member of the M.B.A.C., M.B.A.A. and the I.O.B.
While brew kettles of more than 1,000 hL.'s are no stranger to Keith, neither are small kettles of 150 hL.'s or even 10 litres. His experience includes a period of time consulting with various aspects of the brewing industry and he is not adverse to the occassional tilt at home brewing (he says that it keeps him in touch with the origins of brewing).
Many of the beers that Keith has worked with (and/or personally developed) have been entered into brewing competitions across the globe. He is no stranger to success at such brewing awards, with trophies received in England, Belgium, the U.S.A., Australia and New Zealand. These include
Grande Golds with Palm Leaves in Belgium, World Beer Cup medals in the U.S.A., "Champion Brewery in Austral-Asia" trophies in Australia, several Best in Class honours in New Zealand, both Top Ale and Top Lager "in the World" awards from England - and he's done some judging, even including the National Home Brewing competition in New Zealand.
Keith fully enjoys his brewing and innumerable consumers out there are enjoying his brews today.
