Welcome to the question time episode.

A few months ago I hosted a panel talk at a bar called Five Miles in Tottenham, North London called Where It’s At. It’s intent? To figure out where the UK craft beer industry is at the moment, perhaps taking stock of it in the process and figuring out how it might look in the future.

I’m joined on this panel by three influential people within the world of beer: Ed Mason, founder of the Five Points Brewing Company here in London; Miranda Hudson, founder of Duration Brewing in Norfolk, and Adam Robertson, founder of Verdant Brewing Company in Falmouth Cornwall.

Very few topics are left alone in this lengthy debate: quality, independence, crowdfunding, the price of beer—nothing is taboo. It resulted in a very interesting discussion, and at times quite amusing—especially when our host, Mark Hislop of Exale Brewing (formerly Hale Brewery) delivered us some patented Mali-Bomb shots midway through the discussion.

Thanks to Dan and Mark of Exale for hosting this discussion. Now that they’re in their new home in Walthamstow, North London, we hope to host another of these entertaining debates soon.

Host: Matthew Curtis
Guests: Adam Robertson — Verdant Brewing, Miranda Hudson — Duration Brewing, Ed Mason — The Five Points Brewing Company.
