Beer Down To A Science

On this episode, Matt, Cole and Patrick traveled to beautiful Guelph, Ontario to meet the mad scientists behind beer's least-understood ingredient. The microbiologists of Escarpment Labs are on the leading edge of some of craft beers most exciting developments, breeding and curating new strains of Saccharomyces and Brettanomyces for brewers across North America. The gang dives deep into what makes yeast so special, how different yeasts play a role in the flavours and aromas of your favourite brews, and why there has been a recent resurgence in interest in fermentation.    The Beer Down To A Science Podcast is presented by Nickel Brook Brewing Co.
