Chemistry of Beer

I just discovered this video series on the chemistry of beer. While I think the delivery is a little dry, the content lines up well with what I’ve learned so far and could serve as a good refresher or a great introductory piece for those who want to know how beer is made.

Short Brewing Video

Short video on brewing which I found to be a worthy viewing, especially for those who don’t know as much about the process. The subject/narrator of the video is especially fun to listen to.

This is how I’d like my history lessons

I know, short post but sometimes other people are just saying things that are a lot more interesting. I highly recommend checking this one out. It’s a long article but fascinating and I think it’s pretty cool how many different ways we try to uncover the past.

And it’s awesome that we can uncover it through booze.
