E13 Between Two Ferms: How to Make the Most of Collaborative Brewing

Listen in as Natalie Baldwin, then R&D brewer for Breakside Brewing in Portland, OR and Ashleigh Carter, co-owner and head brewer at Bierstadt Lagerhaus talks beer collabs! These two share their views on why your brewery should or should not collaborate;  what guidelines should you put in place to determine if a particular collab is right for your brewery and the importance of learning when collaborating.

They discuss the collab beer they made at Bierstadt and their then upcoming collab at Breakside. And of course you can’t talk to Ashleigh Carter without questions about her brewing philosophy and lagering. Plus a really great question about yeast harvesting temp sets the two off into their entire process of yeast harvesting, some really great stuff here!
