#24. Pubs & Pints with Big Drop Brewing Co-Founder Rob Fink

Send me a message 🤗FREE COURSE: OVERCOMING THE HURDLESEver wondered how a high school band rivalry could lead to a thriving alcohol-free beer empire? No, neither had I but in this episode, I chat with Rob Fink, the CEO and drum-playing co-founder of Big Drop Brewing about how a boyhood friendship (and too long hair) led to the birth of one of the most awarded AF Beer brands in the world..Rob shares his unique journey from life as a 90s teen musician to the ever-sexy world of insurance law to spearheading the craft alcohol-free beer movement. We talk about everything from the expectations of quality service down your local boozer to the choices confronting brands like Big Drop when it comes to global expansion.Watch on as I blatantly disregard Rob’s great work by carelessly discarding his beers about my floor and join us as we discuss his own favourite tipples in the omnipresent BBQ question.This convo is full of laughs, but we do touch on the serious business of how Big Drop, once partners to Alcohol Change UK, won a legal challenge against the alcohol charity and why Rob felt it was time for him to speak up.From advocacy to collaborations to 40% beers – in this conversation, we cover it all.==============================Big Drop==============================Big Drop Brewing CoTry Big Drop*==============================We also talk about==============================Adnams, Ghost Ship*Erdinger, Alkoholfrei*Brewdog, Nanny State*Maison Sassy*Botivo*Drydrinker*Big Drop v Alcohol Change UK ===🌱 Ready for real change in the way you drink? - https://www.lownodrinker.com/4weekreset===🗝️ Become a Vault member to get access to the moderation tools that actually help - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/s/the-vault===✏️ Come hang out with me on Substack - https://mindfuldrinking.substack.com/===❓ Take the Midlife Drinking Triggers Quiz - https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/68dd33385bb4a20015996a13===*Some links are affiliate links.
