E72 pt.2 Zymurgy with the Great O - Lance Shaner from Omega Yeast

Home Brew Rock Stars Podcast

“Malt is the soul of a beer, hops are the personality and yeast is the heart” - Unknown

Welcome! This is HomeBrew RockStars Episode 72 which is part 2 of our conversation with Omega Yeast.

In this episode we continue with Lance Shaner of Omega Yeast and his path to opening Omega Yeast. Lance is the co-owner of Omega Yeast headquartered in Chicago, IL. Lance, as we found out throughout our interview is a funny guy and we enjoyed talking with him. We endorse and encourage you to try some of the great strains propagated by Omega Yeast.

Before we get to Lance we would like to take a few minutes to remind everyone why we call our podcast ‘Home Brew Rockstars’. Home brewers are remarkably like young musicians aspiring to become rock stars, honing their craft in garages and basements until eventually some emerge as rock stars. It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll or brew. Prost to all of you and for those about to rock/brew WE SALUTE YOU!!

The guys sampled some commercial beers that have been fermented with Omega Yeast.

A big hello to our sponsors who we are glad to see are still hanging tough in these trying times. Keep up the good work!
