Is art compatible with a STEM career? Can you create a sensory experience working in a lab? Can chemicals come together to tell a story? Is the perfect intersection of art and science beer brewing?

Ardent Spirits follows Gwen Conley, San Diego's own Sensory Goddess of Beer, as she guides us through the art and science of brewing at The Lost Abbey. With a degree in chemistry and years of experience working in quality control labs, Gwen goes deep into the microbial science of beer, using her chemistry and sensory knowledge to educate and inform people about really good beer.
