Spring is here, and it’s time to shake off the winter blues with some fresh, crisp, and flavorful brews. In this episode of The Beer Craft Podcast, hosts Ben Holm and Andrew Ziegler dive into the best beers to drink and brew for the season. From classic Maibocks and Saisons to Hefeweizens, Kölsch, and fruited IPAs, we break down what makes these styles shine and how to nail them at home.

We’ll cover:

  • The best spring beer styles and their key ingredients
  • Homebrewing tips to get the most out of your seasonal batches
  • The perfect timing for brewing lagers like Maibock and Kölsch
  • Our top commercial picks for spring sipping

Plus, we crack open The Peach Party Berlinerweiss from Terramar Brewstillery during Beer30 and share pro tips on yeast, fruit additions, and fermentation strategies from Greg Pore, the head brewer. Whether you're a homebrewer looking for inspiration or love a good springtime beer, this episode covers you.

Listen now and let’s raise a glass to brewing the season right.
