That's how Black Arts Brand Manager Chelsie Mew describes her introduction to Wild Ales with her husband, Head Brewer, Josh Murnane. That was a few years ago, and she must have loved it because now this dynamic duo throws everything into their brewing and blending operation. Well, that is, in between building a house, working in their regular jobs, and navigating yet another Melbourne lockdown.

Chelsie and Josh are such a fun couple, and in this chat, we dive in and out of a whole bunch of topics:

•Josh's technique for blending

•The power of Chelsie's "Punters Palate"

•The opportunities to tell great stories within the magical world of wild ales

•And, the power of a peer review system that doubles as an exclusive beer club!

All of this and Josh dumbs down the art of blending to help me understand some of the magic!
