Gregory Kroitzsh, Founder & Managing Director, The Barking Deer Brewpub | @TheBarkingDeer

Greg grew up in a country inn nestled in the mountains of Vermont USA. The boutique hotel run by his parents catered to tourists and skiers with rooms, restaurant and a quaint pub. Little did he know that this upbringing would be a training ground for opening a brewpub in Mumbai’s hip entertainment center of Lower Parel. He started the project three years ago aiming to bring fresh craft beer in an American style brewpub to thirsty beer lovers of Mumbai. The result of this labor of love is The Barking Deer. His home brewing passion developed from his father’s brewing experiments over 25 years ago. Now Greg gets to brew on a much bigger stage. Greg’s previous work experience includes Banker at Citibank in NYC. He received his MBA at Olin School of Business at Babson College and BA at Dartmouth College.
