250: The Referend (or Barn Cats)

Beer Busters

About this episode

In a wild and spontaneous episode (see what we did there?), we are joined by Co-Owner of The Referend Bier Blendery, James Priest. Specializing in spontaneous fermentation and blending, The Referend opened in Pennington, New Jersey in 2016 and relocated to Pinnacle Farms in Kutztown, PA in 2021. We take a dive into the world of traditional, wild fermentation and the craft that goes into it, as well as some risks and pitfalls. Other topics include aroma terroir, barn cats, and Ethan Buckman. In Happy Fun Time, we played a round of There's Weird in My Beer featuring all brews from Earthbound Brewing in St. Louis, Missouri. Grab a mug of warm goodness and settle in to learn about the stewarding of wild little bugs that work hard so we can have such complex, delicious beer.
