Threes Brewing’s Josh Penney on the Lager Renaissance and Craft’s Resilience
Update: 2025-10-22
Description
One thing Josh Penney noticed after moving to Brooklyn from Los Angeles late last fall – aside from markedly less sunny weather – was a broader diversity in beer styles across brewery taprooms.
“It seemed to be a wider range of things that were really appealing to everybody,” he said. “Because out on the West Coast, you might have a robust porter, but then you have, like, six different IPAs.”
Penney is the head brewer at Brooklyn-based Threes Brewing, a role he took on last year after leaving Los Angeles’ Highland Park Brewing. He joins this week’s Brewbound Podcast to share insights gleaned from his bicoastal brewing career.
Before the interview, the Brewbound team breaks down Molson Coors’ latest corporate restructuring and dives into the scuttlebutt surrounding that ornery New York Times op-ed about one writer’s personal issues with craft beer.
