Take away a pocket full of science knowledge and charming, bizarre stories about what fuels these professional -ologists' obsessions.

If you like booze, you'll love... fungus! Alie goes Rogue and takes a field trip to a brewery in Newport, OR where she smells vats of bubbling beer slop and learns about the microorganisms that are the workhorses of the brewing industry. Learn about yeasts, how beer is made, the hardest part about being a beer maker, the thick history of beer, some home brewing tips and also a nugget about bungholes. Let's get yeasty.


Special thanks to Shannon Feltus and Boni Dutch for the hook-up and the road trip to the coast.
