You’d be hard pressed to find a person more passionate about craft beer than Graham Sherman of Toolshed Brewing Co.

Sherman was at Manitoba Ag Days in Brandon, Man., talking about building his business – and his connection to the farming community, advice for entrepreneurs wanting to ‘take the leap’ and his love for one of Alberta’s best home-grown commodities: barley.
