Doug talks about his love for brewing beer, and how he held down three jobs as a young man - all while trying to foster his brewing knowledge. Doug has worked for both Oskar Blues Brewery and Cigar City Brewing before starting Cycle Brewing - St. Petersburg's first craft brewery.Since he started Cycle, the brewery has become known for its highly sought-after bottles and its bottle release events. Doug talks about his opinion on those release days as well as his love for barrel-aged beers. Doug speaks about his passion for aging beer (specifically imperial stouts) in spirit barrels and his love for dessert beers.In this episode, you also see the first iteration of a segment I like to call "The Six Pack." These are six questions to conclude the episode, all related to the beer industry and what the guest has learned in the industry. The "six pack" give a little more information about Doug and about his thoughts on the beer industry.You can listen to the podcast here, or on your favorite podcast platform.

Hustleburg Episode 25 - Interview with Cycle Brewing's Doug Dozark

Over the past decade, Cycle Brewing (St. Petersburg, Florida) has made a name for themselves with big barrel-aged stouts. These stouts make up more than half of the brewery’s yearly production, and are so important to the brewery that they custom-designed a brewhouse with a massively oversized mash tun (more than twice the capacity of the kettle) in order to brew they efficiently. In this episode, owner and head brewer Doug Dozark walk through everything from recipe design to blending process, touching on hot-button subjects like using sugars in high gravity beers (“If you can get over some of the preconceived notions about adding sugar, and just think of these as materials, and different colors on your palette to paint with, it opens up a lot.”) to caramel components in the malt bill, to the ideal age for bourbon barrels, temperature for barrels, and one of the most controversial positions of all—his love of pasteurization. Many factors impact the flavors and stability of high gravity, adjunct-laden beers, and here Dozark shares his experience, and dispels the myths, surrounding the dark art of barrel-aging imperial stouts.
