  • AAB 089: The Science of Beer
    Feb 2 2026

    Beer is an art, but there is a lot of science behind it. Thanks to science, brewers measure and adjust along the way, helping ensure that their artful beers come out as they had envisioned. The science of beer has come a long way and yet, there is still so much to learn about the world’s favorite fermented beverage.

    But it’s not just about beer. The science of beer has touched so many aspects of day-to-day life. That refrigerator in your house? Shelf-stable food products? Laundry soap? Thank you, Beer!

  • AAB 088: How Eisbock Creates Complexity From Freezing
    Jan 5 2026
    The eisbock story is a fun lore of beer myth, a hapless brewery employee left a barrel of doppelbock outside during a snowstorm in Germany and some of the beer froze, concentrating flavor and thus creating a whole new beer style. While the roots of this story may not wholly be true, it’s a fun addition to a beer style made by distillation processes at its most base level. These beers are rare in the United States as you need special licenses to make them but in Europe, the rules are a bit different and in some European countries, these beers, not just eisbocks, have taken on a life of their own. And this is before we start talking about other drinks like the amazing ice cider made by freeze distillation. How does the freezing process work and what changes does it make to these drinks? This month on the All About Beer podcast, we talk to three guests with unique views on this chilly process.

    Foam is perhaps the least appreciated aspect of beer. Somebody even hate it, wanting a glass filled to the brim with liquid. But experts insist that beer foam is important. It is visually appealing, it is an indicator of quality and freshness, and it affects the mouthfeel and even the flavor of the beer.

    What makes good foam? There are factors inside the brewhouse and outside the brewhouse that affect beer foam. From raw ingredients right on through to how the beer is poured, there are many factors affecting beer foam. Foam takes the beer experience to the next level and on this episode, we learn all about it.
