Turnagain Brewing is the inevitable result of gumption, opportunity, and a lifetime of passionate homebrewing. Progenitors Ted and Mary Rosenzweig met in Baltimore in 1987, where they respectively studied biology at Johns Hopkins and Goucher College. Mary learned how to brew from her lab mates in 1989 while working as a microbiologist at University of Colorado, where Ted studied medicine. Ted shared the joy, and the hook sunk deep. They brewed their way through the ‘90’s in Denver and in Phoenix, always looking for ways to brew (and not brew) with ingredients found in the ambient ecosystem. Sage, cilantro, mesquite and spruce variously represent early failures…and successes. In 1998, something wonderful happened. They found an opportunity to live in the greatest place on earth, the place they truly wanted to be. Alaska!   Ted took a job as a general surgeon at the Alaska Native Medical Center in Anchorage, where he has been practicing for more than 20 years. They joined the local homebrew club and felt the swell of passion, talent, and can-do spirit endemic in the Anchorage brewing scene. Minds were expanded when the wide world of beer style was unfurled during a rigorous Beer Judge Certification course, and Ted became an active, certified judge. They toured Belgium and sampled the wisdom gleaned from a millennia of monastic brewing. They also sampled a great deal of chocolate. Ted took a crash course in brewing science at UC Davis. Brewing frequency ramped-up. They started competing and they started winning. A lot. Ted was named homebrewer of the year in 2016.
