Guest Zack Stein, Dartmouth '96, found that his early stint as a consultant seemed a less (ful)filling, cheap imitation of the romantic life in the craft beer he had imagined for himself. When he finally made it into the beer biz, though, he realized that the lifestyle wasn’t quite as romantic as he’d made it out. What he loved, however, was telling a story about the brands.

On the road to his marketing future, though, he was given the opportunity to take control of the operations and buying side of his products. And a world of just beer turned into cheese, turned into produce, turned into everything under the sun.

In this episode, find out from Zack how following your taste buds, and a penchant for acquiring a broad field of knowledge, can open up a whole new buffet of options…on ROADS TAKEN...with Leslie Jennings Rowley
