Cycle Brewing new Bottle Release Info

St. Petersburg’s Cycle Brewing releasing “two old favorites and a newbie” on November 1st

It’s no secret that St. Petersburg’s Cycle Brewing has a knack for making barrel-aged beers. Owner and brewer Doug Dozark made this fact known during his appearance on the BeerWise podcast and discusses it regularly on the brewery’s social media channels. Eagle-eyed enthusiasts can also spot Cycle’s barrels when the brewery posts videos on social media of Doug moving through Cycle’s production facility.

Cycle Brewing’s Doug Dozark is the latest guest on the BeerWise podcast

Recorded in January 2022, Cycle Brewing’s founder and head brewer Doug Dozark is the latest guest on the BeerWise Podcast

Recorded at Cycle Brewing’s production facility in St. Petersburg, I had the privilege of speaking with Doug about his time in the brewing industry, including his origin story about moving to Colorado and showing up to work at Oskar Blues, then returning home to open up a tiny brewery alongside his family’s restaurant in the tiny town of Gulfport. 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.

About Cycle Brewing 
We are a simple brewery, we make beer and we sell it. Our bar is simple, our menu is simple, prices are simple especially when paid in cash. Our operation is straightforward, few frills and all about the beer. We welcome every beer drinker, from the folks just looking to relax with a pint to people looking to unpack layers of complexity.

Our taproom is home to several barrel-aged stouts on tap at all times. In the past, as we were growing the supply was limited and these beers didn’t last long but we expanded barrel storage and now have enough so that everybody coming to the taproom can try some of our most highly rated and prized beers without the hype or lines created by limited supply. Quality is always top priority, in this case making more meant more practice and opportunity to tweak beers and the results are greater availability and improved quality.
