Due South Brewing brewer awarded John Doble Scholarship

Press Release: Joel Kodner, from Due South Brewing Co. in Boynton Beach, was awarded the John G Doble III Memorial Scholarship from the Florida Brewers Guild on March 5, 2016. Joel was the only recipient selected from a pool of qualified candidates from across the state who applied for this scholarship to attend the World Brewing Academy Concise Course in Brewing Technology at the Seibel Institute of Technology in Illinois. This is an annual scholarship awarded to one person each year.

Joel’s career at Due South began on its opening day in 2012 as a part time bartender with a full time accounting job elsewhere. Not long after, driven by his passion for the brewery business, he joined the brewing operations full time. His hard work and determination in the craft beer industry has earned him respect amongst his peers and advanced his position at Due South. He is now a brewer and the Brewhouse Manager at Due South, which produces approximately 15,000 gallons of beer each month to supply over 1,000 Florida retailers with locally made craft beer.

“Joel has been an asset at Due South since the day he arrived,” said Mike Halker, founder and president of Due South. “His work ethic alone attracted our attention. The passion he has for the industry is the icing on the cake. We’re extremely proud to have him running the brewhouse here at Due South.”

Joel can be seen in action most weekdays (the tap room is closed Mondays) slinging grain and hops in the brewhouse at Due South.

About the John Doble Scholarship

John G. Doble III was an American hero, natural leader, tireless worker, and devoted father. His ashes were embedded in an artificial reef off the coast of Sarasota, FL. His passion for brewing beer lives on through the recipients of this scholarship.
The Florida Brewers Guild has partnered with the Siebel Institute of Technology to provide an annual scholarship for the World Brewing Academy Concise Course in Brewing Technology held each fall in Chicago. Scholarships are awarded based on the financial and technical needs of both the brewer and the brewery. The recipient is selected by the Scholarship Selection Committee, which is comprised of members of the Florida Brewers Guild. For more information, click here.
