Beer Prime

My guest today is Alex from North Brewing Co, which is based in Leeds.  Alex is Brand Ambassador and tells us all about the brewery's history and a little about their future.  We drink some of their beers and discuss beer in general.

I also introduce a couple of new features - a little round-up of the beers I've been drinking, and some news from the beer scene!

In this week's episode I talk to award-winning beer writer Melissa Cole.  The conversation covers a whole load of things from her current go-to breweries, the improvement in low/no alcohol beers, pairing food with beer, cricket ... and much more!

We're talking with the guys from Amity Brew Co, Leeds' brand-new brewery and brewpub!  I'm joined by the brewery's co-owner Russ Clarke, and the Head Brewer, Greig Swanson.  We talk about their core range beers (as we taste them!), their brand new brewpub, their inspirations - Mikkeller get a big mention! - and their experience up until now!  Pour a beer, sit back and listen!

I speak with Matt from Siren Craft Brew about their new core range beer, Lumina.  We also discuss Siren's online events such as the Stargazing evening and their Online Escape Room, The Cyphstress.  There are a couple more beers consumed too - Much Ado About Muffin and Be More Pacific.  Matt also drops a piece of EXCLUSIVE info!!

This is the first episode of the new Beer Prime podcast!  I talk with my friend, Graham, about the beer scene up in Leeds and Yorkshire.
