The American craft and microbrew industry is
growing at the astonishing rate of 18 percent a
year, according to the Brewer’s Association.
Until a few years ago, microbreweries were
limited to regional product distribution, due to
the prohibitive cost of shipping bottled beer.
Cans were the answer, but small-scale canning
technology was slow and expensive.
Then, Boulder engineer Jeff Aldred and his
partner, Alexis Foreman, inadvertently changed
the microbrew game in 2007. Aldred and
Foreman had recently opened Wild Goose Engineering, a 1,000-square-foot, four-man machine
shop dedicated to prototype fabrication for local manufacturers.
