Utah’s beer laws are some of the most anomalous in the country—the state does everything it can to make life hard on brewers—but one byproduct of the laws restricting the sale of beers based on ABV is that Utah brewers have had the commercial incentive to hone their low gravity brewing techniques. Today, at Templin Family Brewing in the granary district of Salt Lake City, you’ll find a dozen or so beers at 5% ABV (or less) on tap at any given time—because anything they make over 5% must be poured from a can. But ask Kevin Templin about it, and he won’t complain—he loves making and drinking low ABV beers, and the beers on their board are perfect for the social focus of their taproom. Come with friends, drink a few, and still get home safely.   That discipline with low gravity beers is paying off—Templin’s Granary Pils, a kellerbier, has won GABF bronze and silver medals every year for the past three years, and recently nabbed a top score of 99 from Craft Beer &amp; Brewing’s blind judging panel. In this episode, Templin discusses his approach to lager brewing, how they lager IPAs, mashing thin and cool for maximum attenuation, shaving the beers each time they’re brewed through a cooperative sensory-driven process, reducing hop matter and contact time for greater hop impact, the importance of a clean brewery, and more.

313: Kevin Templin of Templin Family Brewing is Shaving the Edges of Award-Winning Lagers and IPAs

Kevin Templin grew up moving around and skied a little bit before taking a job in the Carrbassat Valley where he worked at Sugar Loaf Ski Area in Maine. His brother had moved out to Alta, Utah and eventually convinced him to head out west where he scored a job at Alta Ski Area. During his stint there was when he brewed his first batch of beer with some Alta friends. They used to put it in an old mine cart and push it back into the old mine to keep the temperature correct. After years of working at other breweries in the Salt Lake valley, he opened Templin Family Brewing in 2018. We talk about being a ski bum, google tans, and how cool it is to see people drinking TF beer up on the hill.  Learn more about Templin Family Brewing: HERE Sign-up for the mailing list: https://bit.ly/FHLMailingList Connect with Josh and the Freeheel Life Family  Josh on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter  Telemark Skier Magazine on Instagram, Twitter and YouTube Freeheel Life on Instagram and Twitter Shop The Freeheel Life Telemark Shop    How You Can Support Us:  Shop Telemark at  FREEHEELLIFE.COM Subscribe &amp; Become a Supporter of TelemarkSkier.com for articles, gear reviews, &amp; more!
