Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant in Columbus is changing brewers. Chris Alltmont, who has been at the brewpub for nearly seven years, is leaving Feb. 3 to take a job at the new production brewery being set up by Fat Head’s Brewery & Saloon in Middleburg Heights. Keith Jackson, 29, who had worked at Columbus Brewing Co. for several years, is taking over at Gordon Biersch, which specializes in German-style lagers. ”It’s going to be a great experience,” Jackson said. “Chris is an amazing brewer and is doing a great job of showing me the ropes. It’s exciting.” Jackson, a Lebanon, Ohio, native and Ohio University graduate, started homebrewing in 2004. After college and before his entry into professional brewing, he developed GIS mapping in an office setting. He also lived in Seattle for about four years before coming back to Ohio. “Seattle is where my interest in beer really took shape and where I really started to think more seriously about getting into brewing,” he said.
