It's a mini milestone for the podcast as we reach episode 40!

It's off to Dave B's neck of the woods for guests, as Luke and Rachel from Biochemist Brewery join us to discuss their nanobrew operation. As the name suggests, Luke is deeply scientific which comes through in his very well brewed offerings!

We kick off the episode with a literally explosive Brew To Me as Lakedown Brewing Co and State Of Kind Brew Co take centre stage, plus there's a rare five on Untappd which we talk about in Tried and Tested!

There is a lot of uncertainty in craft beer at the moment due to a variety of factors, and one of the most upsetting outcomes has been much-loved breweries being forced to shut.

Twisted Wheel shocked the industry when closing at the end of last year but, thanks to head brewer Anthony Barrett, the brewery lives on, albeit in a very different way.

Join us for a candid and fascinating insight into what went wrong, the challenges involved in running a craft brewery and what the future holds for Twisted Wheel on our latest special episode.

Our first full episode of 2023 sees us return with a Brew To Me special, which has got us super-excited!

The social media reaction we got to shining a light on breweries we've not come across was proof, not that we needed it, that there is so much good craft out there that doesn't always reach the mainstream.

So we are delighted to sample beers from Dead Weight Brewing Company, Escapist Brew Co, Hand Brew Co, Missing Link Brewery,  Brolly Brewing and Growling Gibbon Brew Co and also be joined by a member of the team from each brewery to talk through what they're all about.

Add to that our regular spot with the Brewer's Wife (aka Sam from Copper Beech Brew Co) and we have a mammoth seven guests in one episode - our most so far.
