Jason Foust

Indianapolis, IN

Jason got his first bartending job when he turned 21 during college. He worked at a historic hotel bar, with an older and very eclectic clientele. Jason said, “I started the right way by making mostly classics taught to me by story-telling old-timers. I have tended bar in some form ever since.” He currently serves as the United States Bartender Guild Regional Vice President for the 18 markets in the Midwest Region.
