FROM HOBBY TO PROFESSION​
Brody has been immersed in the food and hospitality industry since he was a kid, starting in food service at 14 and never looking back. What began as a hobby—crafting cocktails and exploring mixology—evolved into a full-time passion. Now, as Rube’s Bar Manager, he brings creativity, skill, and a deep appreciation for flavors to every drink he serves.

​
Why BRODY Loves Rube’s​
​
“With our crew, there’s never a dull moment. Every day, I learn something new—whether it’s from our team or our guests. The energy here is contagious, and I love being part of it.”

Beyond the BAR​
​​
Brody is a dedicated music junkie—he collects records, curates playlists for every mood, and plays four instruments (all self-taught). He also shares his passion by coaching drumline at his former high school. And when he's not crafting cocktails or jamming to his favorite tunes, you’ll find him watching professional wrestling—his favorite wrestler? CM Punk.

Brody created his first Rube’s cocktail menu at just 20 years old and competed in the Iowa Mixology Championships by age 22.
