Welcome to episode 31 of Daftaboutcraft!

Sit back with a beer in the sunshine and listen to us talking about what we've been up to recently, including Dave D's visit to the Craft Theory Festival where he had a great time, tried plenty of craft beers and also met James, owner, head brewer, and everything else at the wonderful Wilderness Brewery in Newtown, Powys. He was delighted to find out James is a fan of the pod and agreed to have a chat with us about his endeavours in the craft scene. The result is a superb interview which features on this episode.

We also present the latest in our One Hop Wonders series where this time we shine the spotlight on the simcoe hop by sampling four different beers and finding out the many ways in which the hop can be used.

Add into the mix our regular features of Brew To Me - with appearances from new players Moot Brew Co and Otherworld Brewing - Tried & Tested where we reveal out favourite beer since our last episode, plus Hype Or Tripe and it's another packed episode and a real must for craft beer fans across the land!
