During this episode we thought we’d go back to our earlier days and start with a good ol’ craft beer quiz - Toby Vs Louis. We then went on to speak with Paul about the world of Cloudwater Brew Co.

Part 1 - during the Q&A we discussed the importance of inclusivity within the craft beer scene, their collaboration work with Rock Leopard, Good Karma, Queer Brewing & Eko, their vast beer range and what makes Cloudwater different to other UK breweries.

Part 2 - We dove straight into the question we all want to know more about… “What’s it like to work with Brewdog?”. Paul gives us a very honest and insightful response as well as discussing the potential difficulties. As expected, both Louis & I start to become slightly more intoxicated throughout this section. During this episode you’ll get to hear more about the future of Cloudwater, where we may be seeing them pop up next and how would win in a Royal Rumble style fight down at Cloudwater HQ.


The beers we drank;

How Wonderful - 3.7% Pale
New England Pale - 6.8% Brewdog Collab
Session IPA - 4.5% IPA
Beer With Big Ideas - 4 Pack collaboration

Today we sat down with Mikkel, the owner of Mikkeller, for one of our most intellectual beer conversations to date. Mikkel brought a completely new level to this podcast not just talking about the beers but exploring the world of being a craft beer global conglomerate.

Throughout the episode we discussed the evolution of Mikkeller, how a School Teacher turns award winning brewer in his own kitchen. We also delve into the story being the Mikkeller Running Club and what it’s like to walk into a craft beer market such as the US and take it by storm.

We also touched on the powers and responsibilities large businesses in the craft beer scene have when it comes to inclusivity & respect.

The beers we drank;
American Dream 4.7% IPL
