Introducing Brewer's Perspective

Welcome to the first episode of a new podcast, Brewer's Perspective. Brews News created the first Australian beer podcast way back in 2011. As Brews News has evolved we discuss the news of the week and also the backgrounds of industry people, probing their experiences in the industry. If you haven’t heard it, you may well be interested in the industry news and insights those shows contain. Very regularly we get asked to tackle topics that are quite niche and quite technical. The topics are often ones that we would really like to explore, but may be a little off topic of Radio Brews News That’s one of the reasons we created the BreweryPro channel as the home for content that has higher value but for a more limited audience for our general listener. Next week the first episode is titled, There’s No Five Second Rule In Brewing, and looks at brewing cleanliness and sanitation. It features Aron McGarrity from Ecolab, but as you’ll hear when it drops, it not looking specifically at chemicals but how brewery design and planning, and systems can make sure your beer is the best it can be. But before we do that, we wanted to introduce our hosts to give you a little background on the people who will be anchoring the discussions, Anthony Clem and Marcus Cox. Anthony Clem has been a guest on Beer is a Conversation more than once. During his time with Lion discussing XXXX Pale Ale and also during his time as Head Brewer at Hemingways in Cairns.
