    Daftaboutcraft - Episode 83 (August 31, 2026)

    31/08/2026 | 1h 16 mins.
    Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!
    The latest episode of Daftaboutcraft is bursting with lager! 
    Rí-Rá Brewing Company are positioning themselves as THE Irish craft lager available everywhere, and when the beer tastes as good as it does, it's easy to see why. We talk to head brewer Paul Bogan about all things Rí-Rá, craft beer in Ireland, and more in a fascinating chat. 
    Speaking of lager, Carling Black Label is now back on shelves around the UK. But is it worth trying? Both Daves brace themselves and give it a whirl. 
    We know everyone needs water, and so too do sharks, with Cornwall's Verdant Brewing releasing the latest iterations of their Even Sharks Need Water series. But are the four beer hype, or are they tripe? Join us to find out. 
    All this and plenty more on the latest episode of Daftaboutcraft, the craft beer podcast!
    We're delighted to be backed by Craft Brew Festival, curators of a unique beer festival tour across Britain.

    Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!
    Dave D was recently invited on to the Branding For Breweries podcast with Tim Weaver (aka The Brand Weaver) to talk about beer festivals and how breweries should approach them. 
    With Daftaboutcraft being sponsored by Craft Brew Festival and Dave attending all the events to help behind the scenes, he has some knowledge that might just be handy. If you're a brewery owner, maybe there are some hints to be had. Any if you're not a brewery owner, you might enjoy an insight to something different in this bonus release.
    The next full episode of Daftaboutcraft is due out very soon!

    Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!
    Summer blazes on and so does the Daftaboutcraft podcast with our latest episode. If you want a tale or two with your beer then Tommy Barnes is your man. The brains behind Braslou Biere and also the author of the Braslou Biere Chronicles, Tommy joins us to talk about his latest book and his beers in a very funny and interesting chat. 
    Northern Monk don't feature too often on the podcast these days but one of their latest Patron Project beers, a collab with Moonwake Beer Co, caught the eye. So is it hype, or is it tripe? 
    We also have Brew To Me offerings from Cornwall's Mine Brewing Company and Munyard Brewery from Lincolnshire, plus another rant from Dave D and plenty more besides!

    The weather has been red-hot but the beers are ice cold on the latest episode of Daftaboutcraft, the craft beer podcast! 
    Dead Weight Brewing Co featured as a Brew To Me for Dave B many episodes ago, and the Nuneaton-based set-up is still going strong as co-founders Dale and Dave join the pod to chat through a wide range of topics as well as highlighting their excellent beers. 
    Northern Ireland's largest independent brewery, Bullhouse, are in the spotlight for Hype or Tripe. What will Dave and Dave make of the recent Rolling Papers series? 
    It's a mystery beer from the fridge for Dave D, and one with a difference, while Dave B heads to Camden for a Brew To Me courtesy of 3 Locks Brewing Company.
    Both Daves have some grievances to get off their chests in Top Rants, and there is a look at the latest beer offers in Booze Bargains. All this and more on the latest episode of Daftaboutcraft, the craft beer podcast!

    Daftaboutcraft - BONUS EPISODE - Hobsons Brewery (April 24, 2026)

    24/04/2026 | 1h
    Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!
    Dave D was recently joined in his loft studio by Marc Suffolk (sales director), Paul Williams (sales manager) and Kyle Gittins (marketing manager), three of the 25-strong team behind Shropshire-based Hobsons Brewery.
    Between them, our three guests on this special bonus episode of Daftaboutcraft are responsible for getting their beers to the market place, promoting them to existing and new audiences, plus innovation and looking to the future, something that has always been key since Hobsons was founded by Nick Davis and his parents in 1993, some four years after the idea was first discussed. 
    Pour yourself a beer (preferably a Hobsons), sit back and listen to a wonderful chat in which passion for the industry, passion for beer, and most of all passion for Hobsons, shines through like a beacon.
    We're delighted to be backed by Craft Brew Festival, curators of a unique beer festival tour across Britain.
