Episode 43: Tiffany Simms Lindsey - The Science of Beer at Fighting Hand Brewery

Author: LSU Communication across the Curriculum and LSU College of Science October 31, 2021 Duration: 38:00
LSU alumna, Tiffany Simms Lindsey, puts skills learned in her intro biology course to good use - crafting unique and tasty beers at Fighting Hand Brewery in Pineville, Louisiana. Tiffany and her husband opened the brewery in May 2021 and it is here where her expertise as a lab manager, chemical engineer, and food chemist merge to bring hoppy-beverages to life. In this episode, Tiffany shares how her experience in science led her on this path, how she’s gone “all in”, and upcoming inspirations for creating a welcoming space for her customers. You can learn more about Tiffany and her story on Science Next, the official blog of the LSU College of Science.

Curiosity isn't confined to the laboratory; it's a human impulse that drives us to ask how things work and why they are. LSU Experimental gives a voice to that impulse, pulling back the curtain on the real, often messy, process of discovery happening every day at Louisiana State University. Each episode is a conversation, not a lecture, where faculty and graduate students discuss the questions that keep them up at night. You'll hear about the unexpected hurdles, the moments of insight, and the personal journeys that shape scientific and scholarly work. This podcast, a collaboration between LSU Communication across the Curriculum and the LSU College of Science, moves beyond just presenting findings to explore the stories of the people behind the data. It’s about the graduate student meticulously tracking coastal erosion, the chemist puzzling over a new reaction, or the historian piecing together a forgotten narrative. By focusing on the narrative of investigation itself, the series makes the world of academic research feel immediate and deeply human. Tune in for genuine dialogues that reveal how a simple question can evolve into a lifelong pursuit.
