Hey there! I am an avid podcast listener and am looking for a beer podcast. Specifically I am looking for something about the science of beer, such as the chemistry and microbiology involved. Does anyone have any good suggestions? Thanks
Podcasts get mentioned frequently in the Homebrewing forum. Here is a link to a search of that forum using 'podcast' as the search term. There should be some leads in these threads, although I did not limit the age of the threads in my search, so some older ones may no longer exist. I have not looked at any of them to give you a recommendation. https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/search/119836585/?q=podcast&o=date&c[node]=8
Wow, this really does seem like a really good series. Even if it isn't a podcast I will check it out. This is the kind of things that I am interested in and can go really deep into. Thanks a bundle.
https://www.thebrewingnetwork.com/ It is centered more around homebrewing but they have a steady stream of brewers and other guests on their shows who have a lot of knowledge to share.
The Sour Hour - is decent and available on spotify. The last episode was in March of 2020 but there are over 100 episodes.
This indirectly responds to your inquiry. These do not typically delve into the science of brewing beer. Since the COVID-19 pandemic struck, and I have had to limit my forays outside the abode (I.E.: Where I am relegated is the local branch of the Chicago Public Library. It has limited hours.), I have adjusted my external on-line time, after downloading software updates and Windows 7 Extended Service User security patches, to podcasts. I have a registered software program, Download Manager 3. It works on a number of operating systems. It is sufficient insofar as inputting the URLs of the files I want to obtain. The World-Wide Web site which collates many podcasts, and more crucially, furnishes the URLs which lets me download them, is Podbay .fm. This W-WW site is on my regular bookmark page. I can recommend registering there. Then, you can be notified when a podcast you follow uploads a new episode. I direct you to the craft beer podcasts I have discerned are informative and entertaining. You may have heard about some of them. But I opt to compile them in this forum post. The Beerists Beer Edge ABV Chicago Steal This Beer Drink Beer, Think Beer Beer Edge The Brit & Yankee Chicago Beer Pass The Perfect Pour Beervana False Bottomed Girls Afro Beer Chick The Beer Temple Insiders Roundtable Beer Nuts If you go down this rabbit {not 5 Rabbit} hole, I instruct you to remember to logoff the Internet occasionally and listen to the podcasts you downloaded.
Second this. Go through the back log if you're into saison/wild ferm beer and brewing. Tons of great interviews and info. I wish they'd start it back up... ABV Chicago is great for beer reviews, but definitely heavily focused on the Chicago area. Graining In is Noah Bissell and Co. Dives into some brewing but mostly interviews with people in or associated with the industry.
