Preservation Woodstock named Reformation Brewery CEO Spencer Nix the Barbara G. Ingram Citizen of the Year. This award is presented annually to a Woodstock area resident who has made notable contributions toward the preservation of the citys heritage. As part of this honor, Nix will serve as the grand marshal for the City of Woodstocks Christmas Jubilee Parade.
Preservation Woodstock member Steve Campbell nominated Nix in recognition of his role in restoring a historic building in downtown Woodstock
With so many old buildings and structures being demolished for new development, it is important that we recognize those who save old structures and renovate them for further use, said Campbell. Spencer Nix is being recognized as our Citizen of the Year for his efforts for saving the old Priest Home Furnishings warehouse to be utilized as a facility and meeting place for Reformation Brewery.
Nix believes that preserving Woodstocks history is important.History is our story; an epic, a tragedy, a comedy, a quest, and a continual rebirth. Preserving our history gives our community its unique character and links us to the roots of the community and its people, adding to the quality of life.

Judges notes (published with permission):
“Excellent beer, well done! Maybe a little clear and possibly slightly lower on the dark fruit, but right in the wheelhouse of style and also very dry, drinkable Trappist rather than the sweeter Abbey versions. Great job!” – Phil Farrell, BJCP Grand Master V
“Great job! Very drinkable. Awesome example of a Dubbel – rich, malty, complex flavor profile. Every sip wants me drinking more. Looking forward to the next sip.” – Teri Rogers, BCJP Recognized Judge
Cheers to our brewers for earning a Bronze in the 2018 Best of Craft Beer Awards for Jude, our Belgian Tripel at the 2018 Best of Craft Beer Awards.
