    429: Cody Peczkowski of Moontown Maximizes Malt Expression in Medal-Winning Märzen
    Aug 8 2025
    In Whitestown, Indiana, just outside Indianapolis, this small-town lager brewery has made big waves with multiple World Beer Cup golds for its märzen, Follow the Lederhosen—not to mention a WBC silver for its pale Skool House Bock, knockout scores (https://beerandbrewing.com/beer-reviews/?q=moontown&hPP=30&idx=dato_cbb_web_review_search&p=0) from Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine® judges, and five GABF medals for various lagers. However, Moontown’s (https://www.moontownbeer.com) success is a story of working within the confines of their two-vessel system to find processes that produce the flavors they want. Step-mashing is a must, and their mashout decoction—while not a traditional one, by any means—gives them an extra nudge of flavor and attenuation. In this episode, director of brewing operations Cody Peczkowski talks about the deep influence of his experience brewing for the Gordon Biersch chain, and the how his approach to recipe design has developed in the ensuing years. Along the way, he touches on: focusing on premium ingredients for better beer step-mashing a hazy IPA adjusting the step-mash regimen for body or better attenuation using a mashout decoction process on their two-vessel brewhouse brewing two different märzens with different origin malts, including both German and American craft malts bunging rather than spunding tanks managing competition beers that are “too hoppy” bringing alcohol levels down in malt-forward lager taking a hop-forward approach to West Coast–style pils asking the question, “What would Gordon Biersch do?” And more.

    428: Shaun Kalis of Ruse Layers Flavor and Aroma in IPA With Old and New School Methods (Plus a Healthy Dose of Dankness)
    Aug 1 2025
    Portland, Oregon’s proximity to hop country gives its brewers an enviable perspective on hop flavors, aromas, evolving technologies, and seasonal expressions, and the brewers at Ruse (https://www.rusebrewing.com) don’t take that for granted. When developing recipes, cofounder Shaun Kalis loves pushing the envelope to find additional intensity using the latest flowable hop products, but he also finds punch and flavor density in previous generations of products, used judiciously in combination with hops in other formats. Through this episode, Kalis discusses: using flaked wheat and flaked rice to lower FAN and increase the snap early pick Columbus for bittering and a healthy dose of CO2 extracted Mosaic or Simcoe with T-90’s for long-lasting hop flavor selecting different expressions within the same hop variety for layering character in IPA lifting up hop flavors by boosting underlying dankness adjusting pH while brewing fresh hop beers hot side hopping for more impactful and long-lasting flavor applying new ideas to hazy IPA And more.
