December 12, 2023 06:17 - 55 minutes

This week we meet Craig and Lance Masterton from Heads of Noosa Brewing. We first met the brothers almost five years ago when the brewery opened.

Paul Bowker - Brick Lane Brewing Company

November 28, 2023 07:00 - 49 minutes

This week I speak with Paul Bowker, Managing Director of Brick Lane Brewing company. The small brewing movement was built on a lot of romantic ideas about brewing that were born from a reaction to a brewing duopoly that didn’t offer consumers a lot of choice.

It’s no secret that in the current market, many small breweries are looking to evolve and find a business model that opens up a way forward in a very crowded market.
