Founder
John is the founder of Novak Brewing. He has always lived by the motto "If you want something done right, do it yourself.", which is precisely what he'd say he is doing here. Brewing damn good beer and taking care of dogs. A graduate of the University of Texas with degrees in computer science and geography, John brings a hands-on approach to everything he does, from brewing small-batch beers to fixing just about anything that needs fixing. His never-ending and not at all overwhelming list of hobbies is topped by woodworking, playing piano, and anything tech related.
Chief among his many interests, though, are dogs. Specifically Luna, his black lab, and the inspiration for Loon IPA, our flagship beer.
