Hello, my name is Dennis Gertgen and I’ve been brewing beer for 10 years both as a home brewer and a professional (7 years now).
I try to come up with new ideas as often as possible but try to also keep the recipes that work in “production” as often as possible.
Please take a look at my Beer page to see what I currently have, what’s coming next and past beers.
I haven’t kept track of when I started home brewing but I was able to find a Facebook post from 2010 that said if was my 3rd batch of beer.
I do however remember starting a Lucid Brewing Co. (now Inbound BrewCo) at the end of 2012 as a volunteer and then getting hired in the spring of 2013. I started as the packaging manager and “I think” about 6 months later I was promoted to brewer.
I still work full time for Inbound as a brewer but on my “off” time I work on my own brand (Just Plain Wrong Brewing Co.). Either brewing small batches of beer or canning beer on the weekends.
Right now I’m operating as an Alternating Proprietorship with Inbound BrewCo. They let me use their pilot system on the weekends (and sometimes after work on the weekdays) and when they room I use the production system for larger batches.
