MIKE BURTON (CEO) & JEFF COSGROVE (BREWMASTER)

Mike is a seasoned consumer packaged goods marketing and general management professional. He rose through the ranks throughout his twenty-one year career. After graduating from Carnegie Mellon University, Mike began his corporate life in Cincinnati at Procter & Gamble. He went on to successful experiences at Johnson & Johnson and Spectrum Brands.

In 2007, Mike returned to Cincinnati as Marketing Director of Sunny Delight and later served as their GM/VP and later their CMO. In 2016 he left the corporate world and started the plans to open a brewery. Mike and his family are proud residents of Mason, Ohio.

Jeff oversees beer production for 16 Lots. His affinity for the craft began while growing up in Wisconsin. After moving to Minneapolis— an early hotbed of microbreweries—Jeff began making his own beer. His technique was further influenced by his time living in Cologne, Germany. There he found an appreciation for classic styles such as Kolsch and Dusseldorf Alt.

Jeff still emulates that true-to-style approach in a wide range of fantastic beers. With a BS in Chemical Engineering from The University of Notre Dame and an MBA in Operations Management from the University of Minnesota, his technical understanding of the brewing process and operational needs will allow us to provide the best products available.

At 16 Lots Brewing, our family-friendly tap room is an inviting space for neighbors and friends to gather. Stop in and enjoy the wide selection of 16 Lots beers on tap. Enjoy a game of darts, video games or shuffleboard. Don't forget to grab some delicious pizza or salad from Mad Monks — our in-house pizza kitchen. We also have specially chosen guest wines, ciders, and draft root beer!
