Dustin Herb considers his path in life part heritage, part hard work, and mostly luck.
If he could brag about anything – which isn’t a natural trait, he would say it’s that he got paid to go to school to drink beer and whiskey, and travel.
He was not, actually, a big beer drinker at the time, and he “couldn’t stand” whiskey, Herb said.
“I had to learn to love it, and then ended up loving the process behind it and the culture and the people.”
