A Woman’s Brew

We are super excited this week to have Johnny from Holy Goat on the podcast. If you’re new here, Holy Goat is one of our fave sour breweries with it’s gorgeous beers!

We talk all things Brett fermentation, fruit and where recipe ideas come from. We hear all about the history of Holy Goat and try to make Johnny pick a beer that represents the brewery.

We drank some beautiful beers that are currently available on the Holy Goat webshop:

Bergamot Crusher

Starhammer

1867 Double Export Stout

Grab some here:

We are still here, being brave and making noise and very glad to see a new Brave Noise beer! This time it’s from Hand Brew Co and we were very pleased to chat to Kate, their head brewer.

Our lovely friend Pip also joined us as proceeds from the beer are going to support The Coven – welcome back to the pod Pip!

We chat about the positive experiences we’ve all gained from being a part of Brave Noise, and how diverse people can really be – just like beer!

It’s still possible for breweries to take part in the Brave Noise initiative – who do you want to see brew a Brave Noise? Let us know!

Unfortunately, the beer is sold out, but check out Hand Brew Co’s website to grab some of their other tasty beers.

We apologise in advance for this episode in our lager series on Kellerbier – it may cause more questions than we answer!

You will have seen beers called Kellerbier, you may have seen beers listed under the style, but what exactly is a Kellerbier and why is this style so confusing? We attempt to answer this for you and share some examples you can try. But as Em Sauter says in beer there are a lot of right answers!

Beers we tried:

aU Ungespunddet Naturtrub from Mahrs Brau

Keller Pils from Lost & Grounded

Zwickl from Cloudwater & Braybrooke Beer Co

Have you tried any good Kellerbiers lately? Let us know!

Find more information about Kellerbier here on Alcohol Professor and Kegarator:

You know we love a challenge here at A Woman’s Brew, so we thought we’d create our own beer challenge this year, alongside our beer goals.

We look at the Drink Harder challenge for 2024, which we will take part in again and then think about tasks we could add to our own A Woman’s Brew beer challenge.

Will you be following the Drink Harder challenge or do you have challenge suggestions for us? Let us know!

We’ve made it to January 2024 – New Year, New You and all that, or maybe just New Year, same you because you are awesome!

We’re looking at reflecting and resetting in this week’s episode. Tori & Jo give you a run down of what they got up to over the Christmas break and if they actually managed to add anything to their Drink Harder challenge. Spoiler alert – we are putting together our own beer challenge for 2024 – let us know any challenges you would like to see!

There’s chat about hobbies, learning, planning, a touch of Tryanuary and to cleanse your palate, we give you a refresher on beer tasting techniques to set you up for 2024.

At the end of last year, Jo got stuck in Germany. Tori took the opportunity to record an episode with her husband Rik. You will have heard us talk about our long-suffering partners, if you’ve been listening to us for a while. Both of our husbands are very supportive of what we do – luckily for us!

Rik answers Tori’s questions about being a beer widow – what’s it like going to different beer places with her, what are his experiences within the beer community and how does he feel about holidays being a bit beer focused! Oh, and there is a bunch of Japan chat too.

Do you want to hear from Rik again, or maybe Jo’s husband Gordon? Let us know!
