Summer doesn’t have to shut down your brewhouse. In this episode of The Beer Craft Podcast, Ben and Andrew break down everything you need to know to ferment clean, flavorful beer—even when the thermometer hits the 90s. From swamp coolers and sweaty fermenters to heat-loving yeasts like Kveik and Saison, we’ve got your back.
You’ll learn:
Why the first 48 hours of fermentation matter more than you think
Yeast strains that thrive in the heat (and the styles that pair with them)
How to drop your fermentation temps without a single piece of fancy gear
Beer styles that actually get better when brewed warm
And how to avoid turning your cream ale into a banana smoothie
Plus: anecdotes, bad puns, and Ben’s personal vendetta against banana-flavored IPAs.
