Matthew Curtis - Pellicle Part Two

This week we continue our conversation with beer writer Matthew Curtis. If you missed part 1 of our discussion, I recommend you go back and give it a listen. In that episode, Matt and I discussed his work with Pellicle, his online beer, wine, and cider magazine, how he developed his voice as a writer and podcaster, and about his profile of St. Mars of the Dessert in Sheffield, England. We also discussed important and sensitive subjects such as balancing work while maintaining your mental health. In this episode, we compare the US and UK beer scenes, discuss Matt’s excellent new book, Modern British Beer, and discuss how joy is the central message and lens through which he translates the world of beer to his audiences. We also discuss how Pete Brown robbed him, his words, at the recent British Guild of Beer Writers awards and how he feels about awards generally in light of his recent experiences. We also discuss his plans for the future of Pellicle and as a writer. For more information on the Beer Edge Podcast, follow us on Twitter @thebeeredge.
