“There are so many young, talented brewers that have a global perspective. They’ve got access to all the great things that are going on in America, they’ve got access to all the stuff that’s going on Europe, and they’re pushing boundaries just like breweries in the United States are.” [9:05] — Brian Ewing on Beer Sessions Radio
“Every beer that you try as a brewery, you learn something about what the brewers were trying to do. There’s something there that you can really put in your brain that becomes the whole matrix of your recipes and where your new beers come from.” [20:00] — Mark Burford on Beer Sessions Radio

Episode 115: Pair and Ferment!: On this weeks episode of Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy Carbone and guests are talking about beer pairings and fermentation. Matt Bean of Mens Health is in the studio with some sour beers that he is pairing with a rhubarb crisp. Tune in to hear what beer fairs the best! Herbalist Claudia Keel and Claire Hartten are also joining us to discuss fermentation not only in beer, but in yogurt, kombucha, and cheese. Hear about some of the health benefits of eating and drinking fermented products. Candice Santaferraro calls in from Frogs Leap Farm and Winery to discuss some of the homemade mead that shes been fermenting. Finally, Jimmy and the rest talk about cult beers, and whether theyre really worth the hunt. This episode has been brought to you by GreatBrewers.com. Its also interesting because acidity plays such a role [in sour beer], and of course in wine acidity plays a role. It sets it up for some nice pairings that are reminiscent of what wine can do. -- Jen by Beer Sessions Radio (TM)
