Anthony Cormier was raised and has lived in New Hampshire for most of his life. Fine food, wine and beer have been part of that life from the age of 15 where he started his restaurant career. With a hiatus to hike the Appalachian Trail in 2002, after graduating from high school, he found his way back into the restaurant business. From the small bakery where he started, Anthony moved onwards through the restaurant world while attending Plymouth State University and attaining a BFA in Fine Arts as a sculpture major. After marrying his long time love, Casey, he and his new wife settled in Stratham, NH. Upon moving to the seacoast, Anthony joined the Portsmouth Brewery in August of 2010.

Anthony's other hobbies include ice climbing, rock climbing, fly fishing and skiing. Winter can never come soon enough for this New England native but spring is always a welcome sight.
