Films and Fermentation-- Strong reviews. Stronger drinks.
"Films and Fermentation" is a unique and lively podcast where we explore the intersection of movie culture and adult beverages. Each episode, we pick a fun, nostalgic, or quirky movie topic and pair it with the perfect drink to match the vibe. From cult classics and hidden gems to blockbuster hits, we review films with humor, heart, and a little buzz. We delve into films across all genres and decades, creating spirited discussions, while raising a glass to the art of cinema and the world of craft brews, cocktails, and more.
With over 160 episodes and nearly 3 years of consistent content creation, Films and Fermentation has developed a strong, dedicated fan base. Our lighthearted tone, dynamic banter, and focus on niche movie topics paired with drinks set us apart in the movie podcast space.
