You can get your fizz and pucker on at the city’s first fermentation festival, a gathering of foods and drinks that rely on the chemistry of yeasts, molds and bacteria. More than 20 local companies will be on hand with pickles, kombucha, beer, cheese, bread, wine, sake, cured meats, kimchi and, since it’s organized by Brooklyn Cider House, ciders. Products can be sampled and bought.
