HELPFUL TIP:

There’s probably a good reason why your character chose their career. Think about how certain talents and skills, a dominant positive or negative trait, or even an emotional wound might have influenced this decision. And once they're on the job, don't forget about the many work-related conflict scenarios you can throw at them to create tension and add complications.
OVERVIEW:
A master brewer has extensive knowledge and experience when it comes to brewing beer. They oversee a brewery's production process to ensure batches turn out perfectly and efficiently. While master brewers may collaborate to develop recipes and brands, they have the final say and responsibility when it comes to product quality. Not only do they manage the people who work at the brewery, they often oversee the finances, as well.

NECESSARY TRAINING:
There is no single path to becoming a master brewer. This designation is reserved for those with extensive knowledge and experience in beer production. Many people pursuing this title start in entry-level positions in a brew pub, brewery, or microbrewery and work their way up. Most have extensive experience as home or amateur brewers. To enhance their knowledge, they may pursue a four-year degree related to fermentation sciences, obtain various certifications, or attend one of the few programs dedicated specifically to master brewing (though no formal title is granted upon completion). The process to becoming a master brewer isn't clearly defined but is marked by many years of experience and a thirst for knowledge that is never quite quenched.
