    SCIENCE!!
    The Brü Lab is the perfect podcast to really deep dive into the world of beer science. Bringing the real scholars out into view and making them accessible to the home brewer is a phenomenal resource for everyone. Cade does a great job of condensing the information into easier to follow narratives, especially when the technical jargon gets a little hard to follow. This podcast is absolutely worth a listen even if, like me, the science goes a little over your head. Challenging yourself to learn more about this aspect of brewing will benefit you in so many ways and Cade has made it more accessible than ever!
  • hmmov8
    Cade is the best
    I love this podcast. As a brewing scientist, I am so happy that Cade has chosen to put this out into the pod world for all to listen.
  • Hyperloaded
    Learn something new everyday
    I love this show. Even though some of it is over my head I learn something new every podcast. It’s great to be able to listen to experts discuss a hobby that they are so passionate about. I appreciate all the hard work they put into their craft to help the brewing community get better at making delicious beer! Thank you,
  • Cyclman
    Great show
    Love Brulosophy, this adds scientists who have done academic research to the discussion. Cade is great, the guests are great, love the addition.
  • jeff clause
    Great addition to brulosophy
    This is a great podcast to listen to in addition to the brulosophy podcast. While brulosophy strikes a great balance between education and entertainment, the bru lab really allows you to learn the science behind brewing. Some episodes can be pretty dense with information for someone without a background in science, but keep listening and this podcast will help you understand the science (rather than just memorizing steps) behind brewing that you can apply to make better beer.

    Disappointed I Didn’t Find This Sooner!
    Being a nerdy pro brewer with a science background, this is the kind of brewing podcast I’ve needed for years—just sad I’m just now finding out about this one. I had listened to the original Brülosphy podcast, but found some of the info discussed and the results to be a bit misleading or totally incorrect from a professional brewing perspective. Maybe they have gotten better, but it’s been a a number of years and dumped it once the MBAA started doing their podcast. There are only so many podcasts one can practically listen each week. But this one they have redeemed themselves, and will be a weekly listen for me for sure!

    Going Deep
    If you like the deep science of brewing, this is the one for you
  • Osuspils
    Great podcast!
    I’ve been listening to The BrüLab since the beginning. When I was delivering Skagit Valley Malt throughout the Seattle, Bellingham and Vancouver B.C. areas, I would stream the podcast to keep me in the brewing mindset. I’ve since relocated to Corvallis, maybe I’ll cross paths with Cade down here in one of the taprooms or brewing supply shop here in town.

    Brewing Educational Podcast
    Excellent, fun but no nonsense, interviews with real workers/ growers/ scientists/ Labs/ Pro brewers working in the beer creating world. Interviewer asks insightful questions then gets out of the way to let the guest talk. If you want to learn something about beer brewing concepts that might help your own brewing get a little better and or knowledgeable listen to this podcast.

    Awesome podcast
    If you want to take a deep dive into learning about brewing and why stuff happens durning brewing this is your podcast. You will you learn a lot
  • James314159265358973
    Love it!
    I really enjoy the content here.
  • EricWilhelm
    Excellent Content!
    Brewing education never ends. I’ve been home brewing for 30 years and continue to discover how little I know. Always something new to learn or unlearn. Thanks for the brewing brain food!
  • Mr. Doctorfantastic
    Great content for home brewers and all brewers
    I’m still a new home brewer (3 years) but I dove right in and try to learn and apply as much info as possible. This podcast gives you access to great studies in brewing science. I may not grasp it all at first, but already I am excited by the detailed analyses to improve and fine tune my brewing. It presents findings based on hard work done by serious individuals. I always enjoyed Brulosophy for testing and sharing their results, and leaving me to apply (or not) the information provided. Great job Cade!
  • bigredhophead
    Great new pod!
    First pod is really good. Excited to see Brulosophy branching out more.
  • NNYStripes
    The 1st episode was Great!!
    Leading up to the 1st episode, only hearing the teaser and other mentions on the Brülosophy Podcast, I didn’t know if this would be for me. I’m not a Pro, barely a hobbyist at the rate I get to brew, so thought it may be over my head. It was not the case. While the pros will certainly be paying close attention to challenge their practices, the content was well delivered. The way Cade moderated kept it very reasonable for the home brewer follow and relate. I know how hard you guys have worked to produce this content. Well worth the effort, definitely would recommend!! Congratulations Brülosophy Team!!

    Brü Lab promises to be a very interesting podcast
    Brü Lab, a new podcast in the Brülosophy family promises to look at cutting edge brewing science, from barley agronomy & sensory testing, to Hops research, to cover the ins & outs of brewing sciences, both st the brewery level & at the University brewing research level. Only first episode has dropped but the introductory episode promises to cover all of the above and more.
  • kepunker
    Please release more episodes soon! You guys rock!
    Great stuff
  • BurntFrontEnds
    Excited for this
    Just heard about this new show and can’t wait for it to start. I’ll update my review then, just wanted to share that I’m excited for the Brü Lab.
  • ElDuderinoAmico
    Amazing, I already know it!!!!
    As a lover of all things Brü, I just know this will be amazing too!
