We kick things off with Mik Halse from Hopocrisy Brewing who shares tales from his long career in the Melbourne hospo scene from working in fine dining at age 14, to cheffing, to front of house, to repping and now to having his own brand.

We hear which breweries he visited and was inspired by, the best places to hide beers in an army kitchen and why he feels a little sense of happiness overtime he sees one of his beer cans in the gutter.

Then we are joined by Wayward and Batch for an in depth discussion of Wayward's new "Recession Ale" which has some of the most innovative can art we've seen in ages.

All three breweries discuss the changes they've seen in the Australian beer market since COVID lockdowns have ended and especially the differences between Sydney and Melbourne.

To hear more from all 3 stay tuned for episode 202!
