White Labs Brewing Co.
Are you a beer nerd who spends your time pondering the impact yeast has on the flavor profile of your favorite draught? If so (or if not), visit the 32-tap tasting room at Miramar’s White Labs Pure Yeast and Fermentation -- an organization helmed by biochemists who work to advance brewing through science, education, and craft -- where you’ll sip flights of beers brewed using the same recipe with different yeast bases, affecting flavor, aroma, cloudiness, and alcohol production. At the very least, you’ll leave with enough knowledge to one-up that beer-snob friend of yours the next time you drink together.
