It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! So, why not delve into a big hitting Christmas Special?

Then I went to Brussels and drank lots of great beer, and whilst there visited Yvan de Baets from Brasserie de la Senne to talk about their modern Belgian brewery, and of course drink some of their great beer too!

I went to Bedford to visit Brewpoint and have a chat with Tim Hickford about the brewery and its history - both in the recent years in its current guise, and their greater history dating back to 1876!

EPISODE 117: SAMBROOK'S BREWERY AND THE RAM BREWERY

I visited John Hatch at the Sambrook's Brewery taproom in Wandsworth, Southwest London, on the old Young's Brewery site. John works for the brewery, but also brews heritage beers as The Ram Brewery using a "scrapheap challenge" nano-brewery that was cobbled together from materials during the Young's exit. There are plenty of fascinating stories, and John delivers them in style, while wearing his trademark lab coat!
