We hear from journalist and contributor to Good Beer Hunting Kate Bernot, revisiting how she came to report on Mikkeller, and how the resulting response from Brienne Allen’s ‘’Ratmagnet’’ MeToo craft brewing reckoning led her to report out the first public, investigated claims from former employees. It centered these claims around San Diego, so we hear the detailed stories of Megan Stone and Teresa - two former employees featured in Kate Bernot’s reporting. Then, a source comes forward, verifying much of what we knew - and providing details about what we did not.

We go back to the beginning - of Mikkeller, of these allegations, of who is who and what is what, and everything you’ll need to know. Through the eyes of the community and former employees, we get to know Mikkeller. We meet Fanny Wandel, the bar manager and hospitality industry advocate that inadvertently found herself managing a community of people concerned about Mikkeller’s working environment, and response to allegations. And, we unravel Mikkeller’s first public response to allegations of sexism and harassment in craft brewing - a move that intensified public scrutiny, and brought survivors forward to Fanny Wandel.

Kate provides an update on the availability of the next episodes and the reality of the situation behind the scenes.

We hear from a former employee about her experiences working at headquarters, and her direct experiences of harassment.

In this episode, Kate meets up with Camilla Carlsson of Cake Cowboy, in the rural and semi-remote coastal village of Kivik, Sweden. As a seasonal business, the challenges can be very different to your average cafe. We discuss everything from what it is like to open an out and proud queer space before the community is ready, fending off Nazi’s (yes, there are Nazi’s in Sweden), chocolate, friendship, country music, being on television and running a business while managing a chronic illness. You will probably cry. A big thank you to all round legend and straight up boss Camilla for joining us on this episode.

In this episode, Kate continues to interrupt our wholesome business content to bring you an update on the Mikkeller situation, with many thanks to Fanny Wandel for joining us for this update. There's been a PROTEST! There have been ALLEGATIONS! There have been PLATITUDES! And we have statements from everyone involved, as well as some ambiguous insights into what may be next.

In this episode, we re-release an interview recorded in 2018 with journalist Lena Rutkowski about the sexist collaboration between Mikkeller Beer and Girls Are Awesome. We are doing this because the company has recently posted a statement in response to the discourse happening in craft brewing right now. Problematically, Mikkeller's fave tone, this statement contradicts many facts and truths people have come forward with. They also refuse to engage in a ''transparent public dialogue'', so it seems like the right time to restart the fight for justice on behalf of those abused and hurt on their watch, by kicking off with this historic milestone.
