The science of brewing
Adam Walton and guests explore the science behind brewing.
There's a visit to the Big Hand Brewing Company in Wrexham where they have been busy preparing for the festive season with their new "Bad Santa" beer. Adam gets a peek behind the scenes of the science (and art) of the brewing process.
We hear how a microbiologist in Cardiff is working with the Bang On Brewery in Bridgend to add some special honey to their new beer "MΓͺl"
The programme also hears about the remarkable properties of yeast and how Boss Brewery and West By Three Breweries in Swansea are benefitting from the understanding of the science of yeast.
There's also news of a major survey which links drinking different types of alcohol with different moods. We get reaction to the survey by Alcohol Concern.
