Chris Strong
Lead Brewer & Distiller

My name is Chris Strong; I was born in Southern California while my dad was in the Navy and was raised there for most of my childhood. I escaped to the Northern Nevada area in 2011 and attended UNR to complete my Criminal Justice degree only to learn I enjoyed the process of homebrewing and always dreamed of making beer for a living instead of perusing something in the CJ field. After graduation I spent a little time beer-tending in Reno at an awesome brewery for a little while. Life events forced me to make a career pivot, but I never stopped homebrewing since the day I turned 21.

I spent nearly a decade of regularly brewing at home and consuming as much information as I could get my hands to make better beer. After exhaustive research and many conversations with local brewers and distillers I discovered a love for the incredible process of distillation as well. This long journey culminated in breaking back into the craft industry, joining the 10 Torr team and I was finally able to achieve my dream of being a professional brewer and distiller in 2020. Since then, I have learned so much from our awesome crew here and done what I can to provide delicious beer, spirits, and spirits products. I look forward to growing my craft and ensuring the community can enjoy the 10 Torr difference for years to come! Cheers!
