Experimental Brewing 68 - Simmzy's Second Story with Herbie

What happens when your pub chain wants a brewery but has no room? You make room! When Brian Herbertson joined the Simmzy's group, that was his challenge. The answer - stick it on the second floor! Together we sit down and discuss just how you put a brewery on the second story, tackling supplying a whole chain with beer from one location and his spin on the summer's new hit style - Brut IPA. We also get some great feedback on Speed Brewing and Drew butchers the Polish language, again. We cover punks in the news, alcohol in the industry, the British Museum, homebrew charity and answer your questions!

Been reading a lot lately about these Brut IPA's. None in my area yet and I'm not sure I want to try to brew one until I've tried a few but I am interested in hearing the podcast discuss this.

I've never seen any of this stuff around here, but the plum saison I make sometimes sounds like one of these beers, except with a bit more yeast flavor.

It tastes more like a dry sparkling wine then a beer, between the plum juice, the French Saison yeast fermenting it out to as low as 0.997 or so (you don't need amylase to do that with French Saison or any of the other Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus strains) and nothing but flameout Nelson Sauvin hops. The little bit of spice and the citrus esters from the yeast complements the grape/plum nicely.

I love that beer and for sure will be making another batch this summer, so I'd probably like one of these too.

I think Platform released theirs yesterday (6/6) and I think it is only on tap at this time.
