Fermentation Beer & Brewing Radio - 10 January 2019 - The Alcohol-Free Special

This episode - the first of the new, fortnightly episodes - is an alcohol-free special.

Emma takes a look at:

• who's drinking alcohol-free beer?
• how is the beer brewed?
• what are some of the challenges around brewing & selling alcohol free beer?
• and what does it actually taste like?

She enlists the help of:

• Fergus Fitzgerald - Head Brewer at Adnams Brewery;
• Laura Willoughby - co-founder of Club Soda - The Mindful Drinking Movement;
• Brigid Simmonds - Chief Executive of the British Beer & Pub Association;
• the staff and customers at Bison Beer Crafthouse in Hove;
• and resident beer sommelier, Jane Peyton

PLUS - we put the best dog beers to the test with the help of Rupert the Whippet and Colin the Border Terrier (no - really, we do...)
