Episode Synopsis
New Zealand has had a long and storied love affair with beer, the world’s oldest drink. In Continuous Ferment, Greg Ryan charts that story – why we love it, why we love so much of it and how our tastes have changed. He talked with journalist and beer lover Denise Garland about a history “of rogues and inventors, big business power and small business determination, national debate and social upheaval."This episode was recorded at the Featherston Booktown Karukatea Festival in May 2024.https://www.booktown.org.nz/
