Particularly hard hit is European supplied malts.<\/li> <li>We talk about the impact inflation, COVID and the supply chain have had on Craft brewing.<\/li> <li>We switch topics to talking about new yeast strains. Mitch tells us about his experiences with yeasts that are modified to enhance thiols and promote fruity IPA flavors.<\/li> <li>We also discuss Kviek yeast and how he has incorporated it into some of his IPAs.<\/li> <li>Mitch discusses the recent shakeout in Craft brewing and why some breweries survived where others failed.<\/li> <li>Mitch gives us his closing thoughts.<\/li>\n<\/ul> <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sponsors\">Sponsors<\/h3> <ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Thank you to our sponsor <a href=\"http:\/\/beerandbrewing.com\">Craft Beer and Brewing Magazine<\/a> for sponsoring this episode.
