Cabin Fever Episode 19 - Compassion, Canadian brewing, and concluding lockdowns

My name is Eoghan Walsh from Brussels Beer City, and you’re listening to episode 19 of Cabin Fever - less a podcast than a group therapy session for writers, brewers, and friends who like to enjoy a beer together but, well, can’t.

I was delighted to be joined remotely in Brussels by:

Stephen Beaumont (@BeaumontDrinks), editor of Original Gravity Magazine’s Canadian edition and writer of numerous books, including Canadian Spirits, Will Travel For Beer, and The Beer & Food Companion

Ben Keene (@WhereandBack), beer and travel writer based in Washington state, former editorial director of Beer Advocate, and currently working on The Reporter’s Notebook for the North American Guild of Beer Writers (@nagbw)

And Hélène Spitaels, guide and beer sommelier based in Brussels, and author of Brussels Beer City’s most-read article of 2020

Over beers from Deschutes, Brasserie de la Senne, La Source and Unfiltered Brewing, we talked about the impact of the anti-racism protests sweeping North America and the rest of the world, the heady anticipation of being able to drink in bars again, and we rhapsodise about the restorative effects of nature.

I hope you listen in.
