438: Regenerative Malt's Impact From Farm to Brewhouse, Presented by Proximity MaltDescription
What is regenerative farming and what does it have to do with beer? In this episode, presented by Proximity Malt, we tackle that question with experts from each phase of the malt supply chain—farmer, maltster, and brewer.
Joining the podcast:
- Walker Modic, environmental program director at New Belgium and Bell's
- Derek Heersink, barley farmer and brewery owner
- Zach Gaines, commercial director at Proximity Malt
In this episode, they share their perspectives on what is and isn't possible through regenerative agriculture; how its context-dependent approach to soil health builds resilience in the face of increasing climate challenges; and how breweries can articulate value to consumers while managing their own supply-chain risks.
This episode is brought to you interruption-free by Proximity Malt, the first new-generation, full-scale, regional malting facility in North America, leading the way in malt supply with premium grains; advanced technology that maximizes flavor, performance, flexibility and efficiency; regional sourcing for closer, fresher grain; and a deep focus on closing the loop between farmer, maltster, brewer, and the communities that support each.
