New episode of Nant Fawr Brews out today! All about the mythical 'Union Sets' and the amazing effect they have on cask beer. Now only 2 usable sets remain... Click link below to listen ⬇️ bit.ly/NFB_Union_Sets

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: bit.ly/NFB_Porter

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 🎧➡️bit.ly/NFB_brews_tune…

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: ⬇️ accordion.live/repod

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 🤞🏼🎙️🍻

@StateLoveTrust Love the Paul Kelly quote! Been meaning to ask you for an interview for ages. I do the #nantfawrbrews podcast from just round the corner and often pop in to buy from your fridges, always too many customers for me to feel I can interrupt and intro myself. Want to be on the pod?

“From little things, big things grow..” - P. Kelly Seeing the thing that has consumed you, required all your love and commitment to make happen in print is a lovely moment of affirmation. The most sincere thanks to @peteralanltd See you all soon Team State X

@drinksmaven Hi Jessica, when that feature goes live, would you like to talk about it on my little beer podcast #nantfawrbrews? Would love to have a chance to discuss 'what's happening in beer' in a half hour episode. Follow and DM to sort details if you're interested. Thanks. 🍻

Normal service shall resume shortly. And for those of you interested... I'm writing a massive 'what's happening in beer' feature as we speak. So reach out via a DM or email if you have anything you think I should know about. I'm all ears.

A couple of times per year, I take a break from beer to cover travel retail. If you're beer-focused, bear with me, or look at the insight is & how it could be applied to your business. Because when we travel we look for things which shape trends that ultimately make it home.

@tabamatu Hey Andy, Cardiff-based fan here of your work (I make my own homebrew version of Level Up which goes down a treat with my mates). I also do a little beer podcast (#nantfawrbrews) that I'd love to interview you for - would be up for it? Follow and DM to sort details if so. 🍻

Today, so far: ✅ Reconcilled 224 items in Xero ✅ Filed VAT return (eek £££, 😬) ✅ Sent statements to overdue accounts ❌ Spent an hour failing to find a £7.93 discrepancy ✅ Remembered I pay an accountant to fix my 💩😂

@WeirdDadBrewery Hey Weird Dad crew, been meaning to ask you for ages if you'd be up for an interview for my Cardiff based beer podcast #nantfawrbrews - sounds like there's lots of good stuff happening to discuss. Follow and DM to sort details if you're up for it. 🍻

Lovely to have our lovely new cask around a few Torfaen pubs… just spotted in the @thequeenincwmbran a lovely vegan friendly beer

@julie_ogrady Hi Julie, this is an interesting talking point - would you be up for coming on the #nantfawrbrews podcast to talk about it?

Same if you’ve not ordered for a long while. We’ve limited info about you, or your financial circumstances. You have to build up trust before credit is given. I rarely speak negatively about business, but this is becoming more regular. It’s a risk, and one we won’t take.

1/2 ‘You’ve no idea who I am. I walk into your pub/bar. Order a round of drinks, walk away saying “ I’ll return and pay you in a week”. I bet I know what would happen! Well it’s the same for breweries, when you expect us to supply you, a new customer without payment up front.

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. 👏♥️ 🎧➡️ bit.ly/PP_Packham

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 🎧➡️ bit.ly/NFB_rebel 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. 👍🍺

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. 🍺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👌👏 🎧➡️ bit.ly/NFB_dropbear

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. 👌🍺 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Just bought mine! Don't miss out...

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. 🎧➡️ bit.ly/NFB_Batemans
