For this episode, Adsy was flying solo while Joel explored the USA for a few weeks. Hence they slightly more basic visual look. But there was nothing basic about the content of the chat that Adsy had with long time mate, Matt! An icon of the Brisbane craft beer scene, having worked making fantastic beers at Revel Brewing, Matt now heads to a new stage in his career - working for Clayton Hops. This company is based in New Zealand, but Matt will be representing them (and their top notch hops) right here in Oz!

We first spoke to Andrew from Hilltop Hops Farm back in Episode 8, when he and his business partner Steve, had a small hop farm in Hemmant, on Brisbane's bayside.Since then, Hilltop have moved off the hill top, and expanded their hop farm to a new site in Cleveland, with even more room for growing hops! We chat about the expansion, and how things are looking for their first harvests at the new site. They've even imported a new hop from the US, to grow in this new location.

Gavin from Slipstream Brewing in Yeerongpilly, takes us for an awesome tour around this brewery that has expanded a huge amount in the past few years.

We jump onboard with Hop On Brewery Tours for a ride around the Gold Coast with Joslyn! Hop On was created by Jos and her partner Matt (he wasn't too keen on being on camera, so sent Jos to talk...which she's very good at) and is Queensland's original craft beer tour company, having been around for almost a decade now.

Our first brewery visit for the year, and we're off to Stapylton which is mid-way between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Here you'll find a rather new entry to the craft beer scene in QLD, with Reece at the helm as head brewer and GM.

We sit down for some beers with the brains behind the Amber Hour app, Amberlyn and Ben. This app allows its users to receive monthly drink credits for use at participating breweries, distilleries, and cideries around Australia.

An office tower in the CBD of Brisbane isn't the sort of place you'd expect to find a brewery...but you will at Little Miss Sunshine Bar and Bistro! Adsy and Joel go for a tour with head brewer Becky, of this cool little brewery, that squeezes itself into the lower level of this corporate location. Becky is also the first female brewer we've sat down for a chat with on ABV, and what a great chat it was!

GABS Festival returns to Brisbane for 2024! This time held over two days, a Friday night and Saturday day session, Adsy and Joel roamed the crowds on the Friday night for some beers and banter.

For years, both Adsy and Joel have loved the West Coast IPA made by Seven Mile Brewing. So when it was finally time to sit down and chat with the creator of this multi-award winning beer, they were pumped! Matt takes us on a tour of this Ballina based brewery, which finds itself home right next to the local airport. Starting off with just a few FV tanks, that collection has quickly grown (as you'll see) to allow for the production of their highly regarded core range beers, plus plenty of amazing collabs too.

Watch the episode here - https://aussiebeervoyage.au/episodes/34-brian-from-spangled-drongo/ Pretty excited to catch up with Brian from Spangled Drongo Brewery in Murwillumbah (Adsy even has trouble saying it), as the first official NSW brewery we have visited! Brian is an out and out local, having previously worked for some of the other large breweries in the area. You’ve probably heard of them, being Stone & Wood and Balter Brewing, definitely not small fish in this big pond we call beer. When we visited there was only a single beer being produced, a damn tasty Pale Ale, but a Lager is coming along shortly we were told. With no taproom to sell the beer, you’ll find Spangled Drongo on tap around the place in many pubs and at craft beer events and festivals. The brew kit that Brian uses for the space he has, is huge! There’s not much spare room left in the shed, but it’s been planned so meticulously that they can still add more equipment if needed. The kit is a 4 vessel system, Mash, Lauter, Kettle Whirlpool, 2,500L or 25hL. They’ve over-capitalised on the stainless so that when demand picks up, they’re ready, willing and able. There’s 3 fermenters in total which are all 10,000L (100hL) all of the same size, with a huge ladder to have to dry hop on. Was great to meet Brian and thanks so much for taking the time out to chat with us. Weather had changed plans for a huge event they were having that night but he still gave us time (and beer, woo!) on the day. We love our amazing sponsors Bintani , Konvoy Kegs , Craft Punks Canning , Rallings Labels and CRAFTD. Glass once again, our thanks.

The very first location to visit on our Northern NSW Roadtrip and it’s to visit Smokey at Currumbin Valley Brewing ! To say we were excited was an understatement. Joel might have been less excited to quickly realise just how much Smokey talks, and paired with Adsy, was going to be recording a lot of information. Unique to a lot of the places we’ve visited is that Currumbin Valley’s brewhouse is located on Smokey’s private farmland, nestled in the beautiful rainforest of… You guessed it, Currumbin Valley. But, it’s location is not the only unique thing this brewery has going for it. The kettle is an old dairy vat that had to be rolled into the venue like a massive wheel and suffered only minor dents in the side. However though, while unique itself as a kettle, it’s actually heated by pumping refined oil through the jackets, not steam. Meet Thomas the Tank Engine, probably the most unique piece of heating equipment in Australia (not confirmed). Thomas is basically a thermal fluid heater, and there’s even a tasty beer named after said oil, Waste Oil Stout . This heater was sourced by Luke, the other half of Currumbin Valley Brewing. Massively need to thank Smokey for allowing us to visit his private residence tucked away in the hills just to chat beer, at 7:30am… And then, to drive to the taproom for a second part interview in the morning. Much appreciated mate! We love our amazing sponsors Bintani , Konvoy Kegs , Craft Punks Canning , Rallings Labels and CRAFTD. Glass once again, our thanks.

In this episode, you'll be guided by Joel's dulcet tones as he narrates the entire trip in an overview as we meandered down from Brisbane to as far south as Coffs Harbour. Writing this now, who was Coffs? Anyway, I digress, mostly because I don't to say much in this episode! Some people will likely enjoy that more - Adsy. We've taken our very first real voyage as part of the Aussie Beer Voyage (ABV) podcast to Northern NSW! We also visited Smokey at Currumbin Valley Brewing, which is really at the butt end of QLD and NSW border region, but who's asking? This voyage was an epic adventure for more than one reason. It's been a dream of both Adsy & Joel to be able to travel further afield than just the Brisbane region, and this trip was all courtesy of our sponsors for making it financially viable. Check them out, they're all legends! Across four adventure filled days, we trekked and voyaged ourselves all the way from Brisbane's south down to Coffs Harbour and back again. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows though. In fact, it was more rain with little sun and a few rainbows. We'd planned this journey down to the minute, and it wasn't until a week before that we (Adsy) hadn't factored in that it was still daylight savings in NSW, which would finish on the Sunday they were away. Thankfully, we (Adsy again) hadn't confirmed an interview time yet with a brewery, and that caught us an hour back on the Thursday morning. Confirming interviews would later come back to bite us...

In March the Royal Queensland Beer Awards (RQBA) were held in Brisbane, where Adsy was a judge and Hendo was the Chairman of Judges! A fancy title to be sure, but what does it mean and what do beer competitions entail? Here we chat about how to judge beer and what goes into the process of the stewarding behind the scenes, judging process and all the other things you might not know. We already know so much about Hendo, both as Adsy & Joel’s good mate, but also from our interview last year here . But this time we’re getting down to a beer competition, and how to judge beers and provide adequate feedback, improve knowledge and help grow the industry one beer at a time. For this competition, Hendo didn’t even get to judge beer per se, but was Chairman of Judges with Chris Sheehan (another industry legend), helping to oversee the judging of the competition, helping table captains and judges as they improved their skills. Any professionally run beer judging competition is dependent on the integrity of the stewards and the judges. It’s a logistical nightmare, but also as Ari pointed out in our last interview, for the right person it’s rather fantastic. The stewards are responsible for categorising the beers and ensuring that the judges do not know the brand or any identifying things about the beer. The judges job is to match the beer against a set of words in a style guideline for which that beer was entered. Simple right? Wrong… Thanks Hendo once again or sitting down with us to chat about more beer things. This episode is especially worthwhile for any brewery looking to enter competitions. We love our amazing sponsors Bintani , Konvoy Kegs , Craft Punks Canning , Rallings Labels and CRAFTD. Glass once again, our thanks.

The Royal Queensland Beer Awards is an important event in the Australian beer calendar for craft breweries around the country. It's one of the first chances they get to receive feedback on their beers and take that onboard for any future improvements and tweaks. Taking home a nice trophy and some medals is also nice! Adsy and Joel chat with Ari from The Royal National Agricultural and Industrial Association of Queensland (RNA) about all of the work that goes into organising a competition of this level.

In this episode, Adsy and Joel (well, mostly Adsy) geek out over some serious homebrewing equipment with Gary from Newera Brewing in Brisbane. It's not just homebrew kits though, Gary supplies a full range of equipment for making great beer, right through to high end professional level stainless. Two of the main brands you can find at Newera are Ss Brewtech and Brewtools. Gary shows us around his display room, containing everything a homebrewer could possibly dream of...unitanks, milling machines, glycol chillers, brew buckets, he has it all!

Adsy and Joel have been keen to chat with Annelies from Madocke Beer Brewing Company on the Gold Coast for some time now, and they weren't disappointed! This outstanding Belgian family owned brewery, started from very humble beginnings in the home garage, which brewed small batches of beer and even featured a fully licensed tap room! Nowadays, you'll find them brewing award winning beers in their new full sized taproom at Ashmore on the Gold Coast. They also took out the Champion Small Independent Brewery in Australia at the 2023 Indies! This episode features a tour of the brewery by head brewer Jimmy (who was initially too shy to show us around, hence why we didn't put a microphone on him...only for him to jump in and keenly show us around!), followed by a quick tasting of some outstanding beers with co-founder Annelies, and a very entertaining chat where we learn plenty of new sayings, like putting 'feathers in your bum'...haha!

Adsy took some time to drink a beer the other morning and jump on a Zoom call with James from The Crafty Pint to chat about all things Local Beer Day . With the state of the economy, the hospitality sector and the brewing industry at large suffering with the cost of living, this day is a day to bring back that simple appreciation for beer. The world's best beverage, just ask Adsy! Unfortunately Joel wasn't around to film this one and the technicalities of Zoom meant that the usual quality of our audio isn't the same. But it's more about the content anyway, and is supporting a great cause. If you're looking for something to do on the 24th of February, check out your local independent beer venue, be it a brewery, bar or bowls club even! You don't have to find the biggest event, just get in there, enjoy a beer and help keep good beer in the community! Cheers James, it was a great chat and we look forward to filming a proper ABV episode in the future. Might mean a trip to Victoria, darn... ;)…

How to put beer into cans? It's a pretty important question to answer, especially if you're a brewery that doesn't own a canning line. That's where mobile canning companies like Craft Punks Canning, come into play! Our second episode of the year takes us to Madocke Brewing to sit down (turns out we stood up) with Scott from Craft Punks Canning. Adsy and Joel have a bit of history with Scott and his team, having both worked at Helios while Scott canned the beers. Adsy has also helped pack beers at Parched, Ballistic and now briefly at Madocke Brewing , where we filmed this episode. Keep an eye out for Episode 27 where we hear from both Jimmy and Annelies from Madocke about brewing all things Belgium! Join us for a detailed tour from the start to finish of the mobile canning line, to see how beer goes from a big shiny tank, into a can in your hand at home!

Our first craft beer podcast episode of the year, sees us return to Helios Brewing Company in Brisbane, where we chat to their new head brewer - Jake Harrison. Jake cut his teeth working for many years at Ballistic Beer Company just down the road from Helios in Salisbury, before making the shift to a more simple life brewing solo at the solar powered Helios. In this episode, Jake talks us through the brew kit, runs through some samples of the beers he's been making (including the sell-out hit Dionysus Oat Cream DIPA), before sitting down for a chat about his career highlights (and some low lights). It's an epic way to start our voyage in 2024, so sit back, relax, crack a Saison, and enjoy!

This episode is the 24th and final episode not only of this season, but of this year! 2023 Year in Review is where Adsy and Joel take a look back at some of their best interviews, best moments, funny stories and more. This episode was actually filmed at Hiker Brewing Co , just before we went live and filmed #23 – ABV Awards 2023 . If you haven’t seen the awards post yet, you should check it out. Being the first year that we’ve been doing the podcast, we had no idea how it would turn out. Would people watch, would anyone care, what if no one wanted to speak to us? Thankfully, all of those questions have been pushed side as we forged into the beer world without care. It was safe to say, and easy for anyone to see, that the first episode left a lot to be desired. We weren’t really sure on how to structure an episode, how to ask questions, or what the questions would be. Adsy quickly abandoned the idea of having a bunch of pre-prepared questions and easily transitioned to going off the cuff. This resulted in a more natural conversation and there turned out to be not as many stops and starts. We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠ , ⁠CRAFTD.

Our final podcast guest interview for 2023, and we've saved the big guns for a two-part finale!

The Brew Baron Beer Company is one of the newest additions to the Brisbane beer scene, having taken over the former brew site/venue of Parched Brewing earlier in 2023. The head brewer, Matt, managed to squeeze a chat with Adsy and Joel into his busy schedule, between making beers for the locals, and teaching the next generation of brewers at TAFE Queensland.

So Adsy met Jaimie, a Beer Traveller from the United States of America, while sitting at Hiker Brewing Concern one afternoon. It was only 5 minutes into the conversation before Adsy had heard enough and asked Jaimie if she’d be keen to film an interview. Little did Adsy know that there were two issues with his request. Jaimie dislikes social media and being filmed, and, Jaimie was only in the country for another week. Turns out, a few Hiker beers are perfect for convincing US beer tourists to have a chat. Who knew? Somehow the memo got missed about the interviews being filmed and not just recorded, but, well, Hiker beers aye? We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠ , ⁠CRAFTD.

Hiker Brewing Concern is one of the more recent additions to the Brisbane craft beer scene, taking up residence in Salisbury, and opening their doors to the public in February 2023. Together, Dan and Phil have got straight to work pumping out some great quality beer, and running some fun local based events in their large warehouse styled brewery. Adsy and Joel always enjoy swinging by for a chat and a beer when they can, and this interview was no exception! Thanks to our supporters at Bintani Australia and Konvoy Kegs for making this episode possible.…

Meet Mick, beer writer extraordinaire! You've probably read his work in places like the Crafty Pint, but now he's got a new book out, so you can read even more of his witty, sharp, and profound beer related Prowse. Adsy and Joel joined him for a beer at Tippler's Tap South Bank in Brisbane, for some beers and a good chat about all things beer writing. 'Beer Drinker's Toolkit' is now available to purchase online for those wanting to up their craft beer knowledge! We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠, ⁠CRAFTD.

This would have to be one of the most beautiful and charming breweries we've visited so far! Noosa Hinterland Brewing Company is situated in the picturesque town of Cooran, inland from Noosa.

GABS Festival! Australia's big annual event of everything craft beer related...and more! Adsy and Joel headed into the Brisbane event, and during the second session mingled amongst the crowd to chat with just some of the many brewers, and beer fans there.

The man, the myth, the legend. We finally chat to Steve 'Hendo' Henderson! With so much to talk about in his interesting career, this quickly turned into a two part episode. Part 1 takes a look at how Hendo got started in brewing, worked his way up to create his own craft beer label that won plenty of fans and awards, and ultimately the not so pleasant end to the company...crack open a beer, and get ready for some tales from Hendo!

Welcome to Part 1 of our two part series with Andrew from Hilltop Hops Farm . These two episodes feature something you don’t normally see on ABV, and that’s Adsy without a beer in either episode! Anyway, hops don’t wait for anyone. They’re ready when they’re ready and that’s that. So when we organised to catch up with Andrew and chat about all things hops, we couldn’t miss the opportunity. We were excited, the date was locked in, and then… Unfortunately, Adsy had other ideas that almost derailed the entire podcast for weeks. Coming off an e-scooter and suffering 6 fractures in his face among other body parts, what could we do? The old adage, the show must go on prevailed, and Adsy was feeling good enough to turn up and have a chat. What follows was an exceptional two-part series due to having so much to talk about and Andrew being so engaging and forthright with information. Adsy may be difficult to understand but he’s stoked that we didn’t put off chatting to Andrew. Huge thanks to both Andrew and Steve from Hilltop Hops Farm in Hemmant. We spent over 3 hours there chatting, walking around, smelling hops and more. Personally from Adsy, he would like to massively thank Joel for his support and managing without Adsy able to do much with ABV for almost all of February. It’s not easy to be a single driver of what is a big part of both of our lives when there is a lot to do. It was much appreciated and we’re lucky we had enough content already filmed to not stress. Cheers mate. Credits We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠ , ⁠CRAFTD. Glass⁠ and ⁠Konvoy Kegs⁠ once again, our thanks.

When we asked Mitch from Padre Brewing if he wanted to be involved in our podcast, it wasn’t a case of if, it was a case of when. If you’ve ever spent time talking to Mitch about beer, his softly spoken demeaner belies a full-on passion for the beers that he enjoys and brews. We caught up with him at Ze Pickle in Burleigh Heads to drink some early morning beers. Adsy and Mitch first met when Adsy was working at Helios and was running the inaugural Homebrew Hop’etition. Turns out, Mitch won that event with his lager that has turned into the lager in the Padre range. I guess it goes to show that not only can the man brew a good beer, but the public who voted his beer to the top also know a good beer when they taste one. Credits Huge thanks to Mitch for chatting to us, and Ze Pickle for giving us the time and free beers to have on film. We're in their debt! We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠ , ⁠CRAFTD.

We chat to Sean from Future Magic Brewing, one of the latest new craft breweries to enter the Queensland scene. We discuss the effort that goes into starting a new brewery, and get Sean's thoughts on crowd funding and whether it's proved worthwhile.

You might have seen the kegs hanging around various breweries being used as door stops, chairs or tables, but there's a lot that goes into running a keg business for the craft beer industry. Marie-Anne is one of the Konvoy legends that Adsy wanted to chat to. She has a fancy title of Business Account Manager, but there's more to Marie-Anne and Konvoy Kegs than meets the eye. They're also one of our main sponsors of the show, having supported us from the start before we even really knew what we were doing. Credits Massive thanks to Marie-Anne for taking the time out of her morning to drop into a brewery with a hangover. And to have a quick beer before needing to hit the airport and get home.

Adsy first met Ben like many people these days meet their partners, over the internet. Mutual Instagram followers led to a few conversations and eventually a catch up to drink some beers in person. It was during this first catch up that Adsy heard about Ben's exciting plan to go professional, touting his landlord's love of the home brew he was making in their garage. Hound & Stag has been open since late December of 2022 and has already made a stack of good mates with beers pouring from the taps every day. The venue itself features a massive cold room, abundant seating, 2 custom VIP rooms (one with it's on beer taps and bartender), a stage for musical acts to perform, excellent outdoor space and even more to come! If you're on the Gold Coast, you would have heard of this brewery by now, having been featured in many publications and media appearances. Huge thanks to Ben and Cuan at Hound and Stag for giving us the grand tour and letting us take over the tap room for an interview with the big fella.

You can watch this episode on YouTube! It was never going to be long before Adsy sat down to chat to Reece from 4 Hearts Brewing . Reece and Adsy have known each other for almost 4 years, with Adsy being present for some of Reece’s first recipes and brewing experiences. This chat was always going to be fun, but it was also good to see Reece on a professional level, having attained the Head Brewer role in a relatively short amount of time in this industry. 4 Hearts Brewing has been around since 2013 and grew from a couple of craft beer nuts who wanted somewhere where they could drink those beers. They decided to started microbrewery, and Wade Curtis who was a local amateur brewer at the time had 4 Hearts Brewing as his own small brand. They signed a deal to start at The Pumpyard and have Wade as Head Brewer. After some time Wade left to go back to his love of Marketing and a man called Ken Friend, who was a classically German trained brewer took over the role. Reece was his assistant, having come from learning brewing from none other than Charlie from Helios , and then Reece became the main man. Reece now has the opportunity to stamp his own mark on the brewery and the beers. He loves his beers, he loves his brewing, but he doesn’t really love chatting but we made him talk to Adsy anyway.

In this episode, Adsy sits down to chat to Amberlyn from Craftapped Australia , the brand new social beer app that’s landed on our shores. Currently available to use in both New South Wales, and recently released in December 2022 in Queensland, it’s an exciting app that gets you out and about drinking beers in your local area. Oh, and did we mention yet that the beers are pretty much free! Credits Thanks must go to Amberlyn for letting us film this episode with her. The day before she was feeling under the weather, but managed to fit us into her busy schedule while she was visiting Brisbane to sign breweries up to Craftapped. Massive thanks must also go to the team at BrewDog’s Dogtap in Murarrie who allowed us into the venue early so we could film this episode. They pretty gave us the run of the place and made it easy for us to get in, drink some beers, and do our filming, but mostly the beers. We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠ , ⁠CRAFTD.

On our first ever episode, Adsy chats with one of Australia's most experienced brewers, and good mate, Charlie Hodgson. At the time of the interview, Charlie was just finishing up as head brewer at Helios Brewing Company in Brisbane. He has since moved on to the head brewer role at Woolgooga Brewing Company, not far from Coffs Harbour in NSW. Adsy also runs through some different types of kegs...a key part of getting beer into your glass and to your lips! Credits We love our amazing sponsors Bintani , CRAFTD.
