Have questions about how to become a Pink Boots member or what we talked about in the last meeting? Asha is your girl!

Howdy y’all! My name is Asha. I’ve lived in San Antonio for pretty much my entire life. I’ve been in the industry since I was a teen, but started my weird journey into the craft beer world back in 2014. My first ever craft beer was actually the OPA (RIP) from Ranger Creek. When I first got into the craft beer industry I had no idea that I would turn it into a full time career choice. My hope is to someday have a place of my own. Currently, you can find me behind the bar or on the floor at Kuenstler Brewing serving up the good stuff! I am excited to be part of an ever expanding industry and to be a part of such an amazing group of ladies who are all ready to bring the knowledge, and share the love in San Antonio!

Helping out Mara to make sure our Pink Boots brew days are the best they can be, is Sam!

Hi, I’m San Antonio native, Sam Hansen. I got involved in the beer industry when my now-husband Jim started working at Highway 1 Brewing Company in California and I dragged him here to Texas to start our own place (Second Pitch Brewing). I am also a fellowship trained orthopedic physical therapist and currently work treating only retired SAPD and SAFD. I have 3 kids under 3 and 2 dogs that also keep me busy! I am very excited to continue learning more and more about what makes good beer good and getting to know the women in the industry in San Antonio!

The Pink Boots brewdays are a BIG part of what we do and helps us to raise money to spread the word about who we are. Mara will be leading the charge making sure those brew days run smoothly.

Mara is currently the Co-Owner of Texas' original full service yeast lab, located in the heart of San Antonio. She’s received her Bachelor's degrees in both Religion and Cultural Studies at the University of the Incarnate Word, followed by a Master's Degree in Religious Studies at UIW's Pastoral Institute, and is currently pursuing a Master’s of Science in Sustainability Engineering at the University of Texas San Antonio. With over 15 years of managerial and business experience, Mara handles Community Cultures daily operations as well as its sustainability and conservation partnerships. Mara and her husband Rob spend their free days camping and kayaking the Texas countryside with their lovable dog Frannie, and weekends at home in their garden, with their two cats and many chickens.

Hi! My name is Loretta and I work at Künstler Brewing in Southtown, San Antonio! I just joined PBS this year but I’ve been in the industry since 2015. I was a server at Flying Saucer until 2017 when I was invited to work at Künstler as a beertender. Over the years I’ve been given more responsibilities and opportunities to grow along side the business. When I’m not acting as a shift manager for FOH I’m spearheading our sales and distribution.
I’m very excited to share the financial liaison position with Kay from Second Pitch!

When I’m not working you can usually find me drinking at other local breweries and taprooms! My favorite styles of beers are lagers and sours. I’m very excited to share the financial liaison position with Kay from Second Pitch and hope to meet a lot of you soon!

Hi, My name is Hannah and i’m the one you’ll be hearing from the most on social media! After my husband registered for (and received) a beer kit on our wedding registry, the “kitchen hobby” quickly turned into a full time passion project. After growing up in Pittsburgh, PA we moved here in 2016 and quickly realized San Antonio was a great place to jump in and open a place of of our own - and soon enough Roadmap Brewing was born. Outside of the brewery I worked at a marketing agency up until our daughter, Peyton, was born in the Fall of 2019. Now I’m a full time mom and am excited to be able to still having fun in the beer and marketing world while being involved in Pink Boots!

Here she is...Jackie's side kick, Claire - SATX Co-Leader.

Hey, I’m Claire! I moved to Texas about eleven years ago from California and soon found myself at Flying Saucer, which made a huge amount of sense to me as beer was already life. At the Flying Saucer I worked my way up through the ranks and after four years I was promoted to management and was excited to find myself in charge of the training program and continued beer education program. My favorite things while working there were always learning about beer from whomever or however I could.
After working at the Flying Saucer for a decade I decided it was time to step back and enjoy another rather large aspect of my life- my five children and my husband- who had been very patiently waiting for me to spend a bit more time with them.
Being a part of this group is huge honor to me and I am so incredibly excited to start working alongside other women to promote one another and create a global community that is passionate about the same things.I first learned about Pink Boots when I started at San Antonio Saucer, so I feel like this has all been a long time coming!
