What could be more fitting than kicking off a science stand-up series in a pub with a talk on beer production?

Welcome to "Microbes on Tap: From Beer to Board Games"—an evening where science, storytelling, and play come together over a pint. We’ll start with the fascinating microbial world behind your favorite brews, then shift to a hands-on session exploring how microbes inspire creativity through microbial-themed card games.

Come for the beer, stay for the science—and maybe even leave with a new favorite microbe!

How can four simple ingredients—water, grain, hops, and yeast—come together to create such an incredible diversity of flavors? Join us as we embark on a journey through the art and science of brewing, uncovering the techniques and traditions that give birth to the multitude of beer styles we know and love. By the end, you'll not only appreciate the beer in your glass on a deeper level but also leave with the know-how to hold your own in any conversation with a seasoned beer enthusiast.

We are designing a card game, MicroMates, where your mates fight together environmental threats. With this game, our aim is to provide a better understanding for Youngs about the environment that surrounds them and the microorganisms that inhabit ecosystems. Our first collection unravel the microbial diversity from marine waters endangered by deoxygenation due to climate warming.
