Water. Hops. Malted barley. Yeast.
Put them together and you have a delicious beer — usually.
But as IU molecular biologist Matthew Bochman shares on this week’s podcast, conditions common to the production of certain craft beers can sometimes inhibit their production, risking a growing segment of a nearly $55 billion industry. On this week's episode of Through the Gates, Bochman explains how yeast is used to produce beer and how his research has helped one local brewery improve their product.
If you haven't yet listened to our discussion with Darren Bender-Beauregard, we recommend you do that here! It provides context for Darren’s relationship with the land, how he grows Andean crops in Indiana, the sorts of grants that help his family experiment and educate, and more.
Then, listen to this tour for concrete insights into how Darren and his family channel and encourage ecological abundance.

Summary:
When we learned about the storm-resilient Hunter's Point South Park, we immediately took interest in the resilience potential of urban public space. Then came the questions. How can we manage public space to work in line with local ecology and protect residents from the effects of climate change, all while respecting neighborhood identity and keeping that space truly public? In this two-part series, we look for answers.
In this series:
Joe Jarzen, Keep Indianapolis Beautiful vice president of program strategy
