Your Life In Beer

During this episode of Dad Diaries we reveal why we haven’t had an episode for a while (Ash has news…!) and Thomas gets the Rich-reading-children’s-books treatment. We of course chat all things being a dad with a beer.

Beer today purchased from The Drop (Rich) or The Beer Shop (Ash). 

Cheers!

We shared some beer with Steve, an employee at Hawkeye.

We spoke about what Steve got up to as a student in Cambridge before asking everything we could get away with about Hawkeye’s involvement in sport. We ended with some wonderful family chat.

In this special episode of Your Life in Beer, Ash and Rich discuss new year resolutions over can of low alcohol beer!

If you are, or are not, doing dry January this year please still support independent breweries and shops by buying beer (alcohol free or not) this month as you usually would.

Check to see if a brewery is independent by searching on Indiebeer.uk

We shared some beer with Max Gilkes, music producer and classically trained guitarist, playing notably in guitar duo Map and prog rock band The One. He's played concerts worldwide and worked with artists such as Thundercat and Little Dragon, and operates from a well established private studio in Brighton.

We chatted through his journey to music college, coming to terms with a debilitating finger injury, getting into singing and getting engaged along with much more in between.
