Essential reading. We can BE better and DO better. But we need to acknowledge there is a problem and take actions to make it right.

The Beer Agents For Change created this graphic highlighting the key findings from the inaugural Australian Beer Industry Diversity Survey.

Great to see my local pub ensuring the safety of its staff and patrons.

In the coming weeks and months, hospo workers should never feel embarrassed or reluctant to ask someone’s vax status or to wear their mask correctly. It’s so reassuring when a venue is organised and thorough.

Well done to every venue who is working so hard so we can come together 🙏🙏🙏

Great to see the DHS out being proactive today. Full audit + passed with flying colours = full confidence in our COVIDSafe systems and practices = confidence for you!

Market leading practices 💪🏽

Great take on the S&W buyout:

https://www.beerreflections.com.au/dont-cry-for-me/

In one fell swoop, Lion has acquired three well-known indie breweries. Does this alleged 180 by Fermentum risk further eroding the integrity of independent beer?

Wow

Fermentum - the parent company to the likes of Stone & Wood and Two Birds - has been sold outright to the Kirin-owned Lion.

Should be a good listen!

This week it's the upstarts from Castlemaine here to tell us about their shack (yes, it's an actual shack).

Search us in your podcast apps, or the link below to learn about handpumps, brewing in small spaces, and where the name actually comes from (hint: not The B52's).

I watched a full episode of this last week and it was super! Get on it :)

Turns out there are some other beer podcasts trying to muscle in...🎧🤩😎

New Episode!

The big grudge match between the Coolroom and Ian McNally's inferior podcast the Chosen Brew became so big that we had to split it into two episodes!

After a spiteful opening exchange with McNally our heroes Warren, Travis and Davydd get back to doing what they do best - interviewing the leading lights of the Australian Brewing Industry.

We chat with our good friend Kumar from Deeds, find out how things have being going with Modus Operandi and have a surprising chat with Panhead which leads to some secrets about Brewcult legend Hendo being revealed!

We then round things out with Troy and Shane who managed to taste every beer on offer - what did they nominate as the top 5 beers of GABS?

Which podcast will have the upper hand in the big retirement match at the end of episode 1? Listen on to find out!

Looking forward to this show on Saturday!

Everyone thinks they’re a comedian after a few beers. It’s only natural. You’ve got a funny story to tell, why not tell it after a double IPA?  Well, you don’t need to listen to a poorly explained story over a beer anymore, as two actual comedians are uniting for a show that ties craft bee...
