   The Thirst Time - Ben Stubbs - Rivington Brewing Co

   This week we sit down with Ben Stubbs, co-founder of Rivington Brewing Co. Having launched around the same time as us, we dipped into the nostalgia bag to chat about the Manchester beer scene. We also dive into how a US trip inspired it all, and how they grew from a humble homebrew setup into one of the most spectacular taprooms and breweries in the UK. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast.

   The Thirst Time - John Penno - Bold River Hops

   On this week's episode of The Thirst Time, we sat down with John Penno, owner and co-founder of Bold River Hops. This episode is part of a series of interviews with hop growers, running alongside our Cultivate beer series, where we celebrate the stories and hard work happening further up the supply chain. John has an incredibly interesting story: how hops became the answer to a question, could some of New Zealand's famous hop varieties grow this far south? We know the answer now, having just used their amazing Nectaron in one of our beers, but the story and science behind it are fascinating. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast.
