The boys are finally on tour! Join Chris and Paul at Rivington HQ on the first night of Farm Trip 2024, as Paul prepares to check in his 5000th unique beer on Untappd. But what’s with all this talk of exercise and charity? Why are Chris’s nipples bleeding? Can we find somebody from Rivington to do a quick interview? And how easy is it to segue from the Star Wars theme tune into Superman?  All this...

It's the Fantasy Beer Name Podcast's 1st birthday, so we're pulling out all the stops and doing a little drinking challenge.

And, of course, a new single from Nathan & The Inkjets.   Beer lineup: - Summer (Amity Brew...

We all know DEYA for being one of the leading hazy pale breweries in the UK, but there's more to the Cheltenham haze merchants than meets the eye. We met up with Head Brewer, Gareth for a walk around the brewery, an in-depth chat and to see how they've adapted their original brew site into a Mixed Fermentation project.

A podcast version of our second YouTube live stream. Chris and Paul start with a couple of Welsh beers from Wild Horse Brewing and Polly's Brew Co before meandering off into other topics like a stream piddling down the side of Mount Snowdon. No less than 3 DIPAs are consumed, while we indulge in high street conspiracies, chat with some loyal subscribers, tell stories from our recent trip to DEYA i...

The Fantasy Beer Name Podcast returns for 2024. A double serving of Baron’s 10% TIPA is all that’s needed to grease the wheels; as Chris and Paul discuss recent trips to Nottingham and Amsterdam, and the channel’s debut live stream. In Steve Power’s The Doom Bar, they discuss the Carlsberg-Mikkeller deal and North Brew’s recent upheaval. This is all punctuated with tales of drunken scooter trips a...

This week, we wheel out the Guest Mic and put Olly from Brewser in front of it. As well as joining in with Chris and Paul’s inane beery jibber jabber, he also talks about Brewser’s most ambitious project yet and shares some fun little insights and anecdotes from behind the scenes (and some exclusives). We lube the wheels with a Verdant x Floc DIPA and a 13% Barley Wine from Chapter Brewing.   In t...

Don’t be fooled by the teaser.. This week, we do have our most serious beer talk yet. In part one, some unfinished fantasy beer name business is concluded, Chris reveals how close we came to missing an episode and our next brewery trip is revealed. Then in part two, we have a bumper edition of the Misery Corner (aka Steve Power’s Doom Bar) where Paul gives us the inside story on his recently close...

Chris and Paul are drunk, as they reap the consequences of recording podcast episodes in a bar. On the agenda this week is their recent trip to Crossover Blendery in Hitchen. And Paul discusses his birthday trip to Sheffield with its vibrant beer scene. We feature beers from New Invention & a whopping 15.1% from Wander Beyond. In the fantasy ad break, a new toy craze for craft beer nerds kicks...

In this loose-lipped, mildly erratic episode, we have the big Baron debrief featuring some exclusive content which didn't make the recent edits. Shot on location at the Hop Vault in Stourbridge, Chris and Paul have an in-depth discussion about their relatively surreal trip to Baron. Before moving on to talk about their first invite only beer launch with Attic Brew Co. in Birmingham, and why they’r...

We kick off episode two with some wild, unfounded speculation about a certain brewery’s taproom. We discuss the latest lager tasting video, the unfortunate demise of a famous American brewery and we ponder choice and innovation in craft beer. All of this over beers from Polly’s and Overtone. 

The lads finally try their hand at the podcast game. In the first episode, Christian and Paul discuss a local beer festival, a trip to Liverpool, burning pubs and the recent alcohol duty reform in the UK and its implications for the craft beer scene. All of this over a some cheap German supermarket lager and a brand new Wylam DIPA.
