Dylan turned an interest in home brewing and craft beer into a passion and a career. Starting out at Maine Beer Company as a cellarman, later becoming Mast Landings first employee and head brewer. He was introduced by a friend to Mike Rankin, with whom he started their own brewery, Definitive Brewing Company. His talent for brewing beer was remarkable and unanimously lauded by his peers in the craft brew community. He was steadfastly hardworking, driven, never missing a day of work.
Dylan leaves behind a legacy, he was fundamentally kind, caring, and loyal to his friends and family. Which would explain the unbelievable amount of sympathy and generosity that has been truly uplifting.
Outside of work Dylan lived for moments with family, loved ones, and his incredible network of caring friends, enjoying beers, a deep love for music, especially live music. His favorite place was at his family’s camp on Lake Cobbosseecontee. He was a long time vegetarian and an animal lover, especially cats.
