Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!It has been hot, hot, hot, but the beers are still nice and cold for the latest episode of Daftaboutcraft, the craft beer podcast! We enjoy speaking to all our guests, but every so often we have a chat to breweries where the enjoyment in what they do really shines through, and this was the case with Neighbourhood Brew Co. Based near Stockport, Jake and Corinne are very proud of their beers, and with good reason. Dave B was suitably impressed to place an order after talking, which isn't a common occurrence! They are a brewery to look out for, and have ambitions to get their beers into as many hands as possible. Hype or Tripe returns with beers perfect for the heatwave, a pair of Imperial Stouts! Welbeck Abbey Brewery have dipped their toe into the water with two big boozy numbers, and we find out if they're up to the mark.

Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!This episode is a special bonus, which we are delighted to release to coincide with a brand new craft brewery being launched in the UK. Coldframe Brewing is launching today, May 2, and we were able to talk to the man behind the project, Simon Court, just days before the big launch. Simon's ethos is to brew beers that are connected to the local area, in this case Cornwall. Simon is passionate about creating and sourcing ingredients that are part of the local area and community. We sample the two beers that are being released today, and both feature unmalted barley, which provides a different taste experience, and is something Simon has perfected for Coldframe following months of research and experimentation. If you are able to get down to Flow And Tracks for the big launch in Lostwithiel then Simon plus previous Daftaboutcraft guests Ideal Day will be in attendance today and tomorrow for a special launch party, but if not don't worry as Coldframe beers have been released into the wild across the UK as well!We're delighted to be backed by Craft Brew Festival, curators of a unique beer festival tour across Britain, and Mosaic Board Print, manufacturers of epic beermats.
