Dave Hoops was born in Duluth, attended UMD and throughout his life of travels ultimately ended up back here. You just can’t beat all that is Duluth: the beauty, lake, community and lifestyle.
Hoops started brewing in his kitchen in San Francisco in 1992. Living in the Bay Area at that time he witnessed the Craft Brewing revolution take hold. Talk about inspiring! With influences like Anchor Steam, Sierra Nevada and countless more, Hoops immersed himself in the world of craft beer. He decided to pursue his passion for making good beer and attended Siebel Institute in Chicago and apprenticed at Goose Island also in Chicago.
After returning to San Francisco, Hoops worked at Pyramid’s hallmark brewery in Berkeley until deciding to head back to his roots in Duluth, family in tow. In 1999, he started working at Fitger’s Brewhouse (taking over from his brother Mike— now acclaimed head brewer of Town Hall Brewery in Minneapolis) where he developed the unique style of North Shore Style Ales. He and his brewing crews have won many awards for their brews around the country. He’s also worked with and trained several of the area’s leading brewers. Hoops has judged countless festivals and has judged at the Great American Beer Festival in Denver for over 10 years. He is the only professional brewer from Minnesota to hold that honor. He’s a founding member of the Minnesota Brewers Guild, Master Brewer, Consultant, Beer Columnist and, of course, a lover of the age-old artisan craftsmanship of brewing beer.

The Four-Way Test is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use for their personal and professional relationships. The test has been translated into more than 100 languages, and as Rotarians we recite it at club meetings, but do we really think about the discipline and ethics that guide those principles? Rev. Dr. Nathan Sager will delve into the Rotarian Four Way Test and how it provides Rotarians with a strong, common purpose and direction.

Our partners at CHUM once again asked Harbortown Rotary Club to consider participating in the annual MN Food Share Food Drive – and both our individual members and our Community Service Committee rose to the call! The Club and its members donated over 170 lbs of food and over $1000 cash (worth more than $7000 buying power for them) in March. This is the time of year when donations of food and money are at a low, yet the need remains on the rise. A big thank you from our friends at CHUM to all who participated!

"Regional Rotary Clubs have been key partners in strengthening the Western Lake Superior Habitat for Humanity mission! Harbortown, Skyline, and Duluth Rotary 25 Clubs recently partnered on a $30,000 district grant to support a Habitat house project at 2412 W. First Street in Duluth. Superior 40 and Duluth Eco-Rotary have also helped with Habitat projects the past few years. Club members presented the check on Feb. 6 and also have been volunteering at multiple work sites. Pictured are: (back, l-r) Jim Gruba (Harbortown and WLSHFH board member), David Clanaugh (Superior 40 and WLSHFH Executive Director); Todd Peyton (Skyline), Steve Yorde (Duluth 25); and (front, l-r) the Witherspoon Partner Family (Helina, Salaam and Josiah), Madeline Kvale (WLSHFH Community Engagement Associate), and Pat Finney (Harbortown).
