HH 017 - Part I: Perceiving Aroma and Flavor (w/ James Altwies & Eymard Freire)

October 29, 2020

This week is about sensory. How are we perceiving the aromas and flavors from our beers and beverages? How are memory and sensory linked? What is the sustainability and environmental impact of current trends in beer? Does 6lb per barrel of Mosaic in a double dry-hopped milkshake monstrosity deliver the maximum impact of the ingredients? How do we look at and define innovation vs trend seeking? We tackle these questions and dive into current topics in beer with James Altwies and Eymard Freire.
