This week on Brews News Week, Pete and Matt discuss the beers news of the week.
Under the microscope this week is:
The US Brewers Association is again revisiting the definition of ‘craft’, with a view to changing the definition of independence. Some people say that “Craft beer” means anything Boston Beer wants it to. But non-beer products are becoming an increasing part of brewer’s portfolios.
Stone & Wood co-founder Brad Rogers has started brewing under his own brand, Forest for the Trees, launching with a Saison.
Endeavour Brewing launches crowdfunding campaign
Pete also pays tribute to Dr Ian Davis, founder of FightMND who died this week after being a campaigner for MND research and a huge inspiration for many. Brewmanity and Cavalier both have beers raising money for this disease. Seek them out this week and have one in Ian’s memory.
