Women In Beer - Meet Pike Brewing's Leslie Shore

March 1, 2024

Craft beer has long been celebrated for its creativity, innovation, and community spirit. But despite its inclusive ethos, the beer industry, like many others, has historically been dominated by men. Leslie Shore, the head brewer at Pike Brewing Company, is on a mission to change that. 

In addition to her role at Pike, Shore is also a vocal advocate for diversity and inclusion in the beer community. She believes that by embracing people from all walks of life, the industry can become stronger, more vibrant, and more innovative. Leslie's commitment to diversity and inclusion extends beyond the brewery walls. She is actively involved in initiatives aimed at supporting women and other underrepresented groups in the beer industry, from mentorship programs to networking events. By sharing her knowledge and expertise, she hopes to empower the next generation of brewers and beer lovers to pursue their passions without fear or hesitation. 

Through her leadership, her advocacy, and her dedication to her craft, Leslie is helping to shape a beer industry that is more inclusive than ever before. And for that, we should all raise a glass in her honor. Cheers Leslie!
