First up this week on The Beer Hour we're speaking with Jordan Weisberg, Head Brewer and Co-Owner of Point Ybel Brewing out of Fort Myers, Florida. He'll take us through the Brewery's beginnings and how they found success, and especially what community means to them as they recover from Hurricane Ian. Then the brains behind Omega Yeast join the show! Lance Shaner and Mark Schwarz explain what yeast is, its role in the brewing process, and the innovative ways they're trying to create the yeast of the future.
