How one Boston brewer broke into the male-dominated beer industry and thrives.

It’s a chilly morning in Boston but inside Sam Adams Brewery, it’s warm and malty. Head brewer, Jennifer Glanville, sits down at a long table surrounded by staffers for a morning taste panel.

She said she stumbled into the beer industry almost by accident, partially because she didn’t know it was a career she could work towards. "For example, a truck driver would show up and say I need a manager to sign for this and I would say, 'OK, great,' and he would say no, I need one of the guys to sign," Glanville said. She smirks at this memory because at the time, she was the manager.

Glanville also recently created a beer in honor of Supreme Court Judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a Belgian Brut IPA called When There Are Nine, inspired by Ginsburg's reply when asked,"When will there be enough women on the Supreme Court?"
