Dean Romeo and Tom Champion - Felons Brewing Co

This week we return to Brisbane’s Felons Brewery after a four year break and meet Brand Director Dean Romeo and Tom Champion its Brewery Director. We last spoke to Felon's Brewing before covid just months after the Howard Smith's Wharves on Brisbane's Riverside opened. The huge development has dramatically changed the hospitality face of Brisbane and Felons is central to the development.  I wanted to check in and find out how the hospitality heavy business was going, what they've learned about having a Craft Brewery that has to cater to the widest of tastes in a venue that sees 10,000 visitors per week. I also wanted to talk a little about the changing tastes in beer. A very relevant conversation as this weekend the venue is launching its Lagerpalooza Beer Festival, celebrating that once maligned section of the beer landscape, lagers. It's a fun but reflective chat with two terrific and very smart people and I hope you enjoyed it as much as you'll hear that we did. you paragraph Get the details on Lagerpalooza Get the details on Beer and Caviar This episode of Beer is a Conversation is presented by HPA.
