We all have to start somewhere, and for many, that's setting up a brewery in their kitchen or a shipping container. However, some people enjoy operating on a small scale and wish to stay that way, whilst others use that time to reinvest their money and their skills back into the business in order to grow. Whatever your reasons for running a nano brewery, it can come with its own set of unique challenges.

This week, we chat to Kate Russell from Inner Bay Brewery, and Div Lannigan from Ride Brew Co in Glasgow.
