BrewDog's Brisbane

What this episode covers

This is a special edition of Radio Brews News. Today Scottish brewery BrewDog has announced Brisbane will be the home of its new Australian brewery. The Queensland capital beat out rival Newcastle - and even South Australia - for the brewery’s attention. Brews News had the chance to sit down with BrewDog’s Australian Director - their Top Dog as she is known - Zarah Prior, and co-founder Martin Dickie for a quick chat about the brewing company’s plans, why they chose Brisbane and also a little about BrewDog’s place in the beer firmament. With a relatively short time together and so much to discuss, we didn’t go over quite a few topics that we would have liked to discuss about BrewDog generally but we still managed to cover quite a bit of ground. We will hopefully get an opportunity to chat further with Zarah about the brewery, her plans for BrewDog Australia and also find out a little more about Zarah herself as the brewery build progresses. As always you can let us know what you think about BrewDog’s plans by leaving a comment on the site or our facebook page or sending an email to [email protected]. If you enjoyed the conversation and would like to hear more interviews with the people who make the beer you drink, we have two podcasts - Beer is a Conversation and Radio Brews News. You can subscribe through your favourite podcast platform. Just search Radio Brews News. We thank our presenting sponsors - Cryer Malt - and Brewpack for their support in producing the show. Just as a lot of great beer would not be in your glass without them, this show would not be in your earphones. We appreciate their support. We will join you again later this week for more beer conversations as well as brews news and analysis. Cheers.
