Creature Comforts Family Continues to Grow

Creature Comforts Brewery recently announced the addition of three new employees to their team.  In less than two years Creature Comforts has grown from from five full-time employees to twenty.  Their flagship beer, Tropicalia IPA, continues to be a favorite among the Georgia craft beer community as well as across the country.  In addition, their focus on quality and unique offerings (such as the tart Athena Paradiso series) have helped them to see quick success and expansion.  In order to keep up with their growth, the brewery has recently hired Seth Herman as Business Development Director, Dan Herron as Controller, and Jeremy Lum as Quality Manager.

“Quality is one of our six guiding pillars, and for us it encompasses three things: our products, our promotions, and our people.”, said Chris Herron, co-founder and CEO of Creature Comforts Brewing Company.  “As we continue to expand and improve our brewing operations, we need truly great and capable people to influence our evolution.  I’m confident that Seth, Dan, and Jeremy are the type of people – on a personal and professional level – that will help us deliver on our aspirations, and we are thrilled to have them as part of our family.”

Seth Herman | Business Development Director
In his Role as Business Development Director at Creature Comforts, Herman leads all field marketing and sales-driven initiatives.  Herman, who worked previously with Creature Comforts CEO, Chris Herron, at Diageo for nine years, brings a wealth of experience to this role.  Throughout his nearly 20-year career in the beer industry, Herman has honed his leadership experience and industry knowledge in a variety of senior level sales and marketing positions at industry-leading companies in both the import and craft beer trades.

Dan Herron, Controller
As Controller, Herron manages financial policies and performance management for the brewery.  He brings a fresh perspective and a vast array of financial knowledge from nearly a decade in various finance and accounting roles at a Fortune 500 company.  Adding Herron to the Creature Comforts family was an organic transition in many ways – not only is Herron an avid homebrewer, he is also the brother of brewery co-founder and CEO, Chris Herron.  Dan relocated his family across the country, from California to Georgia, to help support Creature Comforts in managing the quality of company performance.

Jeremy Lum, Quality Manager
With quality of product serving as a forethought since the brewery’s inception, Creature Comforts worked diligently to develop a dedicated quality assurance program in less than two years of operation – an early milestone among craft brewing standards.  As the Quality Control Manager at Creature Comforts, Lum is responsible for developing processes using analytical, microbiological, and physical methods to ensure product consistency, quality, and improvement.  Having a degree in biotechnology and more than four years experience as Quality Technician at Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, Lum was chosen as a natural fit to further develop the program set in place by Creature Comforts Brewmaster, Adam Beauchamp.
