Meet the Team
Alan Gladish
Business Manager
Alan is a homebrewer who started making all-grain beers in 1971, long before there was any kind of home brew network, and 20 years before the craft brewery boom. After several years of trial and error (which could be called “obsessive”), and with only the aid of a couple crude British books on beer-making, Alan was finally able to make a decent beer.
During his early brewing experiments, Alan also sought out local barley from farmers to try his hand at malting. After a forty-year sabbatical he was bitten by the home brew bug again in 2012. Alan has lived in Lower Moreland, PA since 1979 and is now an accomplished and award-winning home brewer. Eager to expand his making-stuff-from-scratch repertoire, he completed the Malt Academy from the Canadian Malting Barley Technical Center in Winnipeg Canada in preparation for starting Double Eagle Malt. Alan is the company’s business manager.
Scott Broussard
Maltster
Scott is driven by an intense sense of curiosity and a deep desire for understanding how things work. He was that kid constantly taking things apart to look inside and building with Legos for hours on end. Understanding this, as well as his affinity for cooking, homebrewing seemed like a perfect fit. The curiosity about beer continued to grow over the years, joining the Philly Homebrew Club as well as serving on its board. But there was still something missing. After a career in corporate sales and marketing, Scott was able to join the team at Double Eagle where he is able to further his knowledge every day.
Scott completed advanced malting barley sciences coursework at Hartwick College’s Center For Craft Food & Beverage. He strives for constant improvement of craft malt and is a champion for supporting our farmers and local, sustainable agriculture. In addition to producing great base malts, he often combines traditional and innovative techniques to bring you the most interesting and highest quality specialty malts. you think they might have.
