Episode 15 - A Kind Of Magical Mystery Tour

Beers Without Frontiers

Our 15th Episode sees us joined by friend of the show Dave Moore and catching up on our hoppy excursions over the last month or so: we discuss trips to Cloudwater Friends and Family Festival in Manchester, The Cask 2019 Festival in London and trips to York and Leeds. We have a return of the Mystery Beer game where we try and guess what unlabelled beer we are drinking and we also sample beers from Cloudwater, Magic Rock and Vibrant Forest. We discuss the new beers in Tesco and also the recent big news of Magic Rock being bought out by brewing behemoths Lion (Kirin) and what this will mean for classic beers like Cannonball. Also we talk to ‘BeerTuber’ Rob Derbyshire of Hopzine about places to drink in York and we speak to Sean of Warwick Real Ale, our local bottle shop, who discusses setting up and building the business, which since the interview took place has now been sold to Paul of local brewery Lock 34. Best wishes to Sean in his retirement and good luck to Paul on writing the next chapter of the story.
