Quantum Brewing Company

Beer and science always went hand-in-hand for Martin, who was born a French Canadian. Dating back 25 years ago, his biochemistry professor proposed a challenge to develop an enzymatic assay with a $100 budget. Martin purchased his first home-brew kit and successfully created an alcohol dehydrogenase based test to measure alcohol in beer.

With his knack for optimizing everything, Martin in more recent years took on a new hobby when he began growing 7 types of hops in his back yard in southeastern Canada. Summer was a glorious time as the hops plants grew multiple inches a day, raising the eyebrows of neighbors. After harvesting the hops cones, Martin discovered true gourmet beer bliss after incorporating fresh hops to his home brews. He has concocted several recipes throughout the years, perfecting them each time. Today at Quantum, he aims to continuously improve recipes to attain the perfect balance of bitterness, flavor and aroma.
