As the driving force behind AMB, Sean is the "Jack Of All Trades". Sean is motivated by not only his love for the game of business; but is also focused on what AMB can do to make Boone, NC the best community in America to start a business and raise a family at the same time. To sum it all up, “What Would You Do If You Could Not Fail?”
Nathan Kelischek is an American/German citizen born and raised in Asheville, NC. In 2011, he became an Alumni of Appalachian State with a degree in Environmental Science with a minor in Chemistry and Geology. During his time at ASU, he honed his knowledge of alternative energy practices and walked away with a solid scientific backbone. Having German roots, “beer has always seemed more like a cultural norm than anything else.” Home brewing with his family and working at the Ivory Tower has fueled his passion to search for the perfect beer. Being a Brewmeister is his first professional job and he couldn’t be more excited to start his career.
Chris Zieber is the Head Brewer at AMB. He began brewing in 2009 and graduated with a degree in Environmental Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2011. Born and raised in Western North Carolina but with ancestral brewing roots in Germany, Chris is proud to be continuing the tradition of excellent brewing while focusing on sustainability and community.
Jess is from Pinnacle, N.C., but moved to Boone to attend ASU. Boone quickly became her home, and she graduated in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science in Health Promotions. As a good friend of the family, Jess became involved in the brewery from the start. She is very excited to be networking with the community and meeting new people from different businesses. She feels very privileged to be a part of the AMB team and is very excited to see what the future holds.
