New episode of Nant Fawr Brews incoming tomorrow Fri 17th October. I'm speaking to author Adrian Tierney-Jones about his new book 'A Pub For All Seasons'. Very knowledgeable fella, lovely conversation, hope you enjoy. 🍻
Work+life=BUSY so eps of my little beer podcast are sporadic (sorry) but there's a new one out today! Old school recording without cameras for a fascinating chat with @zythophiliac about Porter. I just brewed one, called "Ob". Why "Ob"? Listen to find out:

My little beer podcast is back... with a concept ep featuring new beer, new music, history, geography & creativity + the brilliantly wise and entertaining @ARevenantAlien (here explaining why a beer from @LincolnBrewing is named Rail Splitter). Out now

Enjoyed this interview with @AlexD_Ricci. His series on AI in podcasting is well-timed and asks the right questions. I've developed Accordion before and during the AI explosion and have some opinions (as ever!) Why not try Accordion on this ep itself: ⬇️

💫In episode 2 of RePod 2 - AI and the future of podcasting, @AlexD_Ricci talks to @ProducerAndy, CEO and founder of Bwlb, a Welsh company focused on producing innovation in content and products.

In every homebrewer's place you will find a cupboard like this! Old Harbwr minikeg has my own bitter conditioning in it, the @palmersbrewery growler is always handy, tall metal thing is a bottle capper. Been messaging potential future #nantfawrbrews pod guests this evening 🤞🏼🎙️🍻
I grew up watching @ChrisGPackham on The Really Wild Show. Brilliant to work with him on this episode. He's a lovely fella and speaks a LOT of sense. This podcast is where it all started for my little company Bwlb so very proud of how it's doing. 👏♥️

New episode alert! Jack Baber from Rebel Homebrewers (which I myself am a member of 🍻) joins me to discuss what a brilliant hobby homebrewing is and how easy it is to start

Warning - you may well buy your first kit and ingredients after listening 😉
Lucky to have @StateLoveTrust around the corner from me in Cardiff to enable me to buy this beauty to enjoy with the Champions League final! 🍺🏴👌
Yoghurt to the rescue! Seems like there is a lifeline for Anchor Brewing, inventors of the legendary Anchor Steam Beer. 👍🍺
Well, now. Some good news. 🍻 @ProducerAndy

A South Wales beer success story - @DropBearBeer. How they did it, why they're different and where they're going (the top, I'm convinced) in the new #nantfawrbrews podcast episode out now. Loved interviewing Joelle and visiting the brewery. 🍺🏴👌👏

Had the pleasure of interviewing Joelle from @DropBearBeer for #nantfawrbrews podcast at their brewery in Swansea today (fascinating and inspiring chat - out at the end of May) and couldn't leave without picking up a couple of boxes of two of their best brews. 👌🍺 🏴
Interesting to see that @tomos_watkin has been taken over by the team behind @DropBearBeer. Classics remain + couple of new brews (including a stout) & all vegan friendly now. Good to see growth + innovation in Welsh beer scene and a sign of how successful low and no beers are.
🚨New ep alert!🚨 Would you give 💷 to save a multinational industrial brewer's mega-brands? Probably not. Locals in Lincolnshire feel so passionately about @batemansbrewery that back in the 80's they did all they could to help keep them independent.

One of the perks of being a beer podcaster, the *occasional* tasting during a recording. Out on Tues 30th April my #nantfawrbrews chat with author and historian Adam Cartwright all about 150 years of @batemansbrewery and his excellent book on the subject:

Well worth a look if you fancy supporting a big positive community effort to save a much loved (and much relied upon as a community asset) pub. I will certainly be buying some shares. And if you want to hear the story behind it all, listen here:

Starting this "just for fun" beer podcast I didn't expect conversations this powerful or important... But I'm really glad. The other side of the bar, bits of running venues you don't see and the darker side of drinking. And progress. Jon Saunders♥️

Podfade* is real, especially amongst small-scale passion podcasters. It takes commitment to keep booking guests, edit, mix and promote. Know someone who makes a podcast about something they love? Listen, subscribe and tell others.
* = starting well but stopping after a while

It’ll make you want to get out there, folks. Take a listen!! Great episode!!!
Sizzling mixed grills, pakoras on beds of onions, naans like duvets (never mind pillows!) and a cold pint of Kingfisher. Take me to The Scotsman in Southall now! 😋🍺
Great ep with @DavidJesudason all about Desi Pubs, out now.
Perfect weekend listen:
