  • Beercast #32 - Hargreaves Hill

    Get ready to raise a glass to national pride on this episode of Border Barrels! The legendary brewers from Hargreaves Hill have brewed up a triple threat of IPAs, each inspired by a hop country of origin.

    It's a friendly competition between Team USA, Team Australia, and Team New Zealand, with Citra, Galaxy, and Nectaron hops vying for the top spot. Which hop will win your taste buds over? With every beer being as delicious as advertised, we're all winners in the end!

    But that's not all - we'll also take a deep dive into Hargreaves Hill's rich brewing history, exploring some of their previous limited releases and sharing our historical Untapped ratings. And a special thanks to Otters Promise for supplying these tasty treats for us to enjoy.

    Join us as we sip, savor, and celebrate the craft beer world with Hargreaves Hill's amazing brews. Cheers to good beer and good times!

  • Beercast #31 - Easter Special (Part One)

    It may be the holiest of long weekends, but aint no act of God gonna slow down the Border Barrels train.
    The Not So Good Shed is greeted to a severe downpour, rendering recording a hopeless task. Thankfully we were able to use the inconvenience as a much needed half time break.
    Why a half time break you ask? Well we present to both you and ourselves the Beer Cartel Easter pack, choc full of malty, alcoholic goodness in limited edition beer form.
    We won't spoil the fun, but come join us on a Good Friday adventure down a deliciously decadent craft beer rabbit hole

  • Beercast #30 - Lost Palms

    We like to think we're a professional, well organised trio. This week's Brewery Showcase doesn't necessarily change that, but there are more twists, turns and genuine LOL's than we ever could have expected.

    It's Gratzy's turn to supply the beers, but through coincidence (or telepathy) Huddo inevitably brings extras as we dive DEEP into an unprecedented FIVE limited release brews from Queensland's Lost Plams Brewing Co. In other words, WILDCARD BITCHES.
    IPA's, Sours and the very first Flemmish Red Ale greet our tastebuds this week. The crew from Miami floor us with some of the most unique beers ever sampled on the POD.
    Thanks to Lost Palms for an extraordinary afternoon and My Beer Dealer for being our beer dealer. We certainly lost our Palm Trees at times during a chaotic, hop filled hour.

  • Beercast #29 - Fox Friday

    It's gotta be Friday somewhere!

    To be more specific, it's a very Foxy Friday in the Not So Goods Shed.
    A sweltering March afternoon called for some big, fun beers, courtesy of soon-to-be jugganaut Fox Friday Brewing. Our little hiatus came to an end thanks to Simmo supplying the BB crew with a Pale Ale, Hazy IPA and West Coast IPA, all part of the Fox Friday core range.
    The major lesson we learnt from our afternoon of discovery was that quality counts for everything and we're likely doing a sequel at a later date.
    Thank you to Fox Friday for the brews and to My Beer Dealer for making it possible.
    Be sure to check out Fox Friday's very own podcast, which is sure to be far more informative than our heat-stroked ramblings.

  • Beercast #28 - [Working Title Brew Co]

    [Border Barrels back at it again]


    We felt it was important to work our name into the title this week, in honour of our favourite new Queenslanders, Working Title Brew Co. Hudson provided this weeks POD with 3 MASSIVELY unique beers, ranging from an Ice Cream sour to a Coffee ale and a Lime puree Milkshake DIPA. We manage to successfully make amends for our GABS top 5 gaffe from last week. What exactly did we vote for? All is revealed!

    We also live up to our word by providing a loyal listener with a delicious collection of beers. All it took was some interaction via social media. Could you be next?

  • Beerscast #27 - Aether vs Revel

    The boys return for the first brewery showcase of 2023, but with a last minute twist.


    Gratzy is the beer dealer this week, supplying the pod with the first ever Border Barrels Battle of the Breweries. If you manage to say that last part 3 times in a row you've unlocked a delicious journey of beers designed by Queensland legends Aether and Revel.

    IPAs, sours and stouts are on the menu as we put both breweries under the microscope with our unique rating system, as well as deciding which brewer ultimately takes home the chocolates.

    Forgive our rustiness, as the silly season clearly took a hold.

    Jump in with us and discover 6 banging brews from two of Queensland's rising stars.

  • Beercast #26 - Christmas Special

    Here it is! Our gift to you.


    Well... More so a gift to ourselves. For a special treat this holiday season, Simmo, Hudd and Gratzy staged an epic Border Barrels Xmas party. A long-form POD filled with any topic that took our fancy in the moment, held together by our love of great beers.

    9 brews in total, dispersed via lottery.

    Who wins big?
    All 3 of us. And you.

    Relive a boozy, fun-filled afternoon with your favourite craft beer nuffies.

  • Beercast #25 - Blackman's Brewery

    It's Simmo's turn to supply the goods this week. Being the thoughtful, nostalgia fiend he is, he transported us back to a friends holiday on the front steps of Torquay's Blackman's Brewery.


    You might think this is 'just another IPA' Beercast... And you'd be correct. However we have a very justifiable reason. Today we sipped and savoured 3 beers from Blackman's JUST ANOTHER IPA series, enjoying some unique hop combinations in BIG BOY 500ml cans.

    Like always, we looked deep into the history of the brewery, gave some super amateur tasting notes and waxed lyrical about ocean piss, East Kent Golding origins and Goanna parties. (It'll make sense when you listen).

    Thank you to Blackman's for a delicious afternoon and The Lane Cellars for access to the brews.

  • Beercast #24 - Kaiju Beer

    The Border Barrels crew turn into biologists on this weeks pod, discovering brand new Kaiju Mutations plus some exciting, unexpected tidbits about the brewery of the same name.   


    Black metal references, Simpsons influences and enough wall art to fill MONA are just some of the crazy directions this weeks journey into Kaiju Brewing takes us.  

    It's another IPA heavy edition, with a NEIPA, Hazy Double and Dank West Coast all sampled.   

    Mutation Program #0007 Space Lord
    NEIPA Mutation Program #0009 Immortal Jellyfish Double Hazy IPA
    The Dank Shelbyville IPA (with Dr. Colossus)  

    Thank you to Kaiju for the incredible beers, as well as The Lane Cellars for supplying them to us.   

    Finally a special shoutout to Tim Doyle for his glorious can artistry. He can be found at http://www.timdoyle.com and @timothypdoyle on instagram.


    Enjoy. This one's a monster.
