We are joined today by co-founder and brewer of Enegren Brewing out of Moorpark, CA, Chris Enegren. We talk all things bottom fermenting including: - Danny snubbing Enegren, then being impressed. - Chris transitioning from home brewing to programming at Premier Stainless. - The guts to start up a German focused brewery in IPA land. - Opportunities to educate locals on German styles. - What the hell is decoction. - Where did Enegren get these recipes and how did they nail them. - Why some breweries fail at lagers - European big pour culture. - Debunking or verifying Lager myths. - Feelings about the delicious but suspicious Dry Hopped Pilsner fad. - Sam Adams and Stone proclaiming they have made lager flavorful. - Story of getting into Trader Joes. And much much more!
