Beer. It’s one of the most popular drinks in the world (after water, tea, coffee and orange juice apparently). Join us for a light-hearted presentation on some of the science behind this underrated beverage. We’ll be discussing the nerdy side of beer, from the ingredients, to the brewing process. Who knew that chemistry, microbiology and hydrogeology could be so interesting (hopefully all of you)?
Dr Dylan Irvine joined CDU in Jan 2021 through the Outstanding Future Researcher program. His research focuses predominantly on groundwater related issues. He is currently working on springs, seawater intrusion, groundwater management and the use of carbon-14 to determine groundwater age. Dylan is collaborating with six other institutions on an ARC Linkage Project investigating the Doongmabulla Springs Complex. He also likes a beer.
