Audio Graph’s Brewmaster Tyler Hubbard: What’s Coming Next

There’s something new brewing at Audio Graph Brewery (at 12th and Olive)—and it’s not just the winter lineup of hazy IPAs and crisp lagers. The neighborhood favorite brewery recently welcomed Tyler Hubbard as its new brewmaster, bringing fresh energy to the taps. With the holiday season just around the corner—and SPNA’s Winter Market at Audio Graph—Tyler’s arrival is well-timed. He’s already crafting a seasonal mix that includes both familiar favorites and fresh brews, from hop-forward IPAs to smooth lagers perfect for gathering with friends and family.

We caught up with Tyler to talk about what’s on tap this season, his favorite brewing techniques, and what makes Audio Graph’s beers stand out.

What kinds of beers at Audio Graph can locals expect to find on tap this season?

A variety of lagers, plenty of hazy IPA and west coast IPA, maybe even a stout or two.

Is there a particular ingredient or brewing technique that makes your beer stand out?

I'm a huge fan of New Zealand hop varieties, specifically Nelson Sauvin. I try to incorporate some sort of New Zealand hop into all my IPAs. 

What’s something about the brewing process that most people might not know—but would find interesting?

Most ales take about 2-3 weeks to finish whereas lagers can take anywhere from six to eight weeks to finish.

For someone new to the craft beers at Audio Graph, which of your brews would you recommend starting with? 

I'd recommend starting with our light lager, The Social District, or our Munich-style Helles lager, Harmonix.

Whether you’re a longtime regular or new to the neighborhood, Audio Graph is the perfect place to raise a glass this season. Stop by to sample Tyler’s latest creations and join us for our upcoming Winter Craft Market on Saturday, December 6 from 5-10 pm on the Audio Graph patio. It’s an exciting time for our neighborhood brewery, and we’re looking forward to seeing what Audio Graph has on tap next.
