A Woman’s Brew

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!

We brewed a beer! And our wonderful friend Rachel at Heist Brew Co made it all possible. We were honoured to be asked to brew with Heist and to have the opportunity to develop the beer from recipe creation right through to naming and art work! Together we created a very drinkable peanut butter and jelly porter (using Jo’s base porter recipe!) called When The Beer Is So Lit You Turn Into A Bagel!

We also chat to Rachel about the life of a brewer – congrats Rachel for just getting a full time position on the brew team at Heist. We chat about her journey into brewing, so if you are thinking of this path give us a listen to see how Rachel did it.

Our beer is only available at the Heist taproom so if you are in Sheffield or can get there go try it now and let us know what you think! You can buy other Heist beers from their webshop here:

https://www.heistbrewco.com/store

Check out photos from our brew day on our insta here:

Heist are now a firm friend of the show and we can’t wait to visit them and brew again. Thank you so much for having us – it was such an honour!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!

Since trying the Light Nights foraged grisette, Tori wanted to find out more about foraging. We are lucky enough to chat to Red from First & Last Brewery to learn more about the process of foraging, how you can join in and how to sustainably managing collecting nature’s bounty.

We also have a taste of other foraged beers from Wild Weather Ales and Duration. A big thank you to Miranda for sending us some photos of Bates foraging the wood that went into their beer Dropped Limb. Check out the video for those!

Check out First & Last’s website to grab some foraged beers here:

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!

We celebrate a belated Oktoberfest with Maz and Floz from Time At The Bar Podcast which specialises in beer history. We take a look at the popular beer styles drunk at Oktoberfest – Marzen and Festbier – and how you can tell them apart. Then with Time At The Bar Pod’s expert research skills we look at women in relation to Oktoberfest. Why is the dirndl the recognised dress at the festival? What is it like to be a waitress in the tents? And how has Oktoberfest been leading the way with festival safety? Oh! And can you guess the now traditional song played at the end of the festival? You are never going to get it!

We had the best time chatting with Maz and Floz! Future plans are already in the making so watch this space for future collaborations!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!

Last week, Jo visited Leeds Beer Festival to make a new friend! She chats to Pip Young from Coven Brewsters, an initiative to promote women owned and women brewed beer.

Pip is all about sustainability and promoting everyone in beer – making room at the table for all of the perspectives. We talk about the difficulties faced by women in the beer industry and community and how we don’t want to tokenise women, but we do want to promote their successes.

Make sure you follow Coven Brewsters on Instagram here:

https://www.instagram.com/thecoven.brewsters/

And find out what is happening with The Coven next! Also, keep an eye out for their super cool merch!

Have we missed any brilliant women owned and women brewed beer you think we should know about? Head over to Instagram to let us know!
