Episode #10: Link Up | Justin da Silva of Matron Fine Beer

Week 5 already? This Series is flying by, and this week we return to Ontario with Bloomfield's Matron Fine Beer! Co-Founder Justin da Silva connected with Cee and Tiff to crack his 7.5% West Coast Double IPA with local Cascade, Mosaic and Galaxy hops. They chatted about how to grow interest in craft beer in regions that don't inherently have a lot of diversity, why he feels like diverse representation is key in both the community and in the industry, and the sheer volume of opportunity in the craft beer world. This was a great one, enjoy! About the Link Up season: We're back with a brand new season of BAOS Podcast, and this one is something very special and very close to us. We'll be focusing this entire season on Link Up, a non-profit started by the good folks behind Microbrasserie 5e Baron in Aylmer, QC and Tiffany and Cee here at BAOS and High Season Co. Our aim with this program is to help BIPOC from underrepresented communities learn about and enter the craft beer industry in essentially any area they wish - from a brewing apprentice to taking the Cicerone course for front-of-house opportunities, from hop farming to the yeast lab, from beer media to design and photography, we're here to help diversify an industry that is in dire need of it.
