Kveik blending, Raw Brewing & souring with Eik og Tid

[David Heath]

My summer holidays are over and It is now time for another educational video!

For this one, I have teamed up with a very up and coming Norwegian commercial brewery known as "Eik og Tid" that is pushing the boundaries in craft beer brewing and fermenting with kveik yeast.

They have taken the influence of traditional Norwegian brewing and have pushed this further still by blending their own custom kveik mix. This is then used with a wort that is produced raw and then soured to create new and interesting depths of flavour. In this video, I explain their methods, thoughts and suggestions around kveik yeast blending, raw brewing and also souring.

This should prove interesting to both homebrewers and commercial brewers alike.

As usual, thank you for all your kind support and enthusiasm for my channel.

This is fascinating David. Really looking forward to hearing more. Been experimenting with adding lacto at the start of fermentation with interesting results. It's all been drunk fresh though, nothing aged yet. Can't wait to part 2.

Many thanks. Yes I think so also. When you taste the end beers it feels pretty amazing that they are still produced relatively quickly compared to traditional sours from places like Belgium.
