ABOUT us
RIGHT PLACE, RIGHT TIME
Tim and Jason first crossed paths 20 years ago working at a Richmond area environmental engineering consulting company. Throughout the years they’ve stayed in touch both professionally and personally. In late 2016, while contemplating a career change, Jason decided to pursue his love of craft beer and set his sights on opening a brewery in his new home County of Powhatan. Knowing Tim also appreciated good craft beer and had previously lived in Powhatan, a business partnership was born! Prior to opening we were introduced to Brian Knight and brought him on as our head brewer.
Tim may have passed on to his next adventure, but his spirit lives on in the good vibes that Crazy Rooster Brewing is all about. Be good to each other.

JASON MILLER
Head Multi-Tasker
Jason grew up in Virginia, attended college at Radford University (Geology Degree) and had spent approximately 20 years in the Environmental industry prior to opening the brewery. He is passionate about the science and the business of craft beer, and now spends his days bustling about the taproom and production area. He also loves music and makes sure to bring the great vibes from years of following the Grateful Dead scene to the brewery!

BRIAN KNIGHT
HEAD BREWER
Brian is a Virginia native, and spent three years at Legend Brewing Company and seven years at Strangeways Brewing honing his brew skills before joining the CRBC team in February 2020. Both hands on and mechanically inclined, Brian spends his days keeping the production area rolling. When not at the brewery, he can be found throwing darts in his garage with his wife or dropping heavy bass lines in his band, Merciful Zero!
