FERMENTATION

Brewing is immediately followed by the fermentation process. The high-sugar extract, wort, from the brewhouse is mixed with yeast. Once these have been mixed, at certain temperatures, nature can run its course. The sugars will be metabolised into alcohol and natural carbon dioxide (which causes the typical smell anyone who has ever entered a fermentation area will be able to recall).
