Beer Sucks Beer Sucks

With our live podcast coming up for WA Beer Week at The Dutch Trading Co, we thought it might be time to put out some content from our last live event!

In this episode we sit down with one of our all time favorite beer lords, Joel Beresford! Joel keeps himself busy as an owner of a multi-award winning (No1 in the country!) craft beer bar, Dutch Trading Co and by distributing some absolutely legendary beers under his banner, Shogun Empire. He's also a major sponsor of this podcast!

Joel talks about everything WA Beer Week with us and we explore some of the events that Dutch Trading Co are putting on as the flagship venue of WA Beer Week. The highlight will obviously be our second live event, Crafty Sucks 2 with James from The Crafty Pint and a panel of industry superstars!

True to stye, we also find out some weird habits of Adam and Tim...

From barefoot shoe salesman to the bearded Zeus that's now heading up the Australian arm of Garage Project, this week we catch up with Adam Holliday to find out what's driving the NZ powerhouse craft brewery.

Brendan sadly couldn't make this episode due to falling into a vat of maple syrup and choosing to not get out in time to record.

This episode features our good friend, lovely human and distinguished beer writer, James Smith of The Crafty Pint.

Author of 150 Great Australian Beers & The Great Australian Beer Guide, contributor to James Halliday's Wine Companion magazine (for beer), Co-Founder and (former) Festival Director of Good Beer Week and Founder of The Crafty Pint. James has the kind of resume that suggests he shouldn't be spending time hanging out with people like us, but low and behold, life works in mysterious ways sometimes.

We talk about sleep walking, beer judging, beer media, big dumb beers, The Crafty Pint and we make James plug his awesome membership program, The Crafty Cabal!

Margaret McCarron, WA Brand Ambassador for Colonial Brewing Co. and State Coordinator for the Pink Boots Society, has been absolutely killing it in the industry and we're excited to sit down and chat her!

We find out what's happening at Colonial, learn a little more about Pink Boots Society, impress her with our cheese selection and generally make things awkward like usual.

In this episode, Costa welcomes us into his home, his brewery. We sit amongst the barrels and nerd out about beer while real sounds from the brewers happen in the background.

Costa gets a chance to explain his philosophy and practices that lead to him producing some of the best beers in the country and we shut up just long enough to let him.

It was an absolute pleasure and an honour to record this episode and we hope you enjoy it!
