Profile: Central Wisconsin

Joe Martino - Stevens Point Brewery

February 16, 2021 • Mid-State Technical College • Season 1 • Episode 4

On this episode of Profile, Todd and I have the pleasure of exploring the iconic Stevens Point Brewery. The origin story of the Brewery is as old as our community itself, but joining us on this episode is current co-owner, Joe Martino. After moving to the Midwest, Joe worked for some of the largest food and beverage producers in the country and was active in the product development of many household brands. When an opportunity arose to purchase the Stevens Point Brewery, he just couldn’t pass it up. Joe leveraged his years of experience, ingenuity and big-market thinking to take a local regional brand and bring our Wisconsin-made flavors to a national stage.
