Cooking with Beer

About the episode

Cooking with beer

As the first Cooking With programme the aim was to grab the attention of the audience with the one thing students know most about: beer, so recipes all included beer in some shape or form.

It was recorded in Langwith D block kitchen on the ground floor, though for some reason no curtains were used to cover the windows leading to a slightly dark appearance due to the daytime recording.

The closing titles featured "Walk Like An Egyptian" by The Bangles, lyrically unrelated to beer.
