S2:E1 - Finding Beer

I'm back for a second series and this time we will be taking a journey through history as well as beer. 2020 will see us finding out how our earliest counterparts would have made those first brews, look to the local environment to forage and find some of the ingredients and, of course, see if it's possible to do it ourselves.

Just like before there will be ups, downs and a fair number of challenges, but I'll be seeking help and advice from a range of experts to see us through. In this episode I'll be explaining the challenge ahead of us and catching up with award-winning beer writer and historian, Martyn Cornell.
