Jason Parker, Copperworks Owner and Distiller, was raised in Kentucky. He may have a 
touch of bourbon in his blood.
Maybe that’s what got him into craft beer brewing in the early days, before there was even a microbrew scene in Seattle. With degrees in chemistry and microbiology and love of fine beer, he was the first brewer at Pike Place Brewery in 1989. He went on to refine his craft with Fish Brewing Company, Redhook and as Brewmaster at Pyramid Breweries.
Moving onto distilled spirits is a natural progression. Many people are surprised to learn whiskey starts with beer. Whiskey is essentially a beer that has been through the distillation process.So as an experienced microbrewer with a track record of producing award-winning, top-selling craft beer, Jason may be the secret ingredient for the creation of top-shelf artisan spirits.
