It’s our annual Halloween podcast crossover and this year we’re delighted to be chatting to the Spooky AF podcast, a local Irish pod that explores all things spooky, paranormal and weird. We hear from Rob and Suz about how their podcast came to be, their favourite Irish pubs (haunted ones…?) and ghostly stories from Ireland.Lisa and Christina also appeared on their podcast - go and have a listen. And happy Halloween to all you spooky souls… Links:🍻Spooky AF podcast: https://irepod.com/podcast/spooky-afSpooky AF on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespookyafpod/What we’re drinking: Fifth Frame Ritual Black IPA, 7.5%Rye River Little Bangin’ IPA, 3.8%Beer Ladies Links:  All the beer ladies links: https://linktr.ee/beerladies Christina’s book from Camra: The Devil’s in the Draught Lines - https://shorturl.at/syBFP The Devil’s in the Draught Lines on Amazon: https://shorturl.at/qLS08 Lisa’s Pub Guide: https://www.weirdodublinpubs.com/#beerladiespodcast #halloweenpodcast #spookyseason Hosted on Acast.

The Glasladies Beer Society is on a mission to connect beer-loving women (and non-binary folk) in Glasgow and this year they’re turning FIVE.  But they don’t just organise regular meetups, they have an annual beer festival too! The Beer is for Everyone festival is happening on 16 November in Glasgow with a focus on inclusivity, from accessibility to allowing kids and dogs. It’s a celebration of Scottish craft beer and culture for the whole family. Part of the proceeds will be going to two worthy charities: Scottish Action for Mental Health (SAMH) and The Women’s Centre Glasgow.Listen as Nix and Kristin talk through some of the Glasladies’ history, how they moved from a meetup to festival organisers and what they’re looking forward to at this year's festival.

We’re back after an extended summer break.. we did not just rest in the sunshine (LOL, Ireland) but were all busy as hell and so our wee podcast was delayed. Nevermind, we’re here now and our first episode is really just a catchup on what we’ve all been up to (beery or otherwise!) as well as a look into season 5 and what’s to come. What we’re drinking:Schnitzlbaumer - Export DunkelThird Barrel - Set to SmoothRascals Club Rock ShandyBeer Ladies Links: All the beerladies links: https://linktr.ee/beerladiesChristina’s book from Camra: The Devil’s in the Draught Lines - https://shorturl.at/syBFPThe Devil’s in the Draught Lines on Amazon: https://shorturl.at/qLS08Lisa’s Pub Guide: https://www.weirdodublinpubs.com/ Hosted on Acast.

We’re continuing our bumper series of interviews with authors who’ve just released books (that you should absolutely buy…) and this week we hear from Dr James Wright from Triskele Heritage and his work on Archaeological mythbusting. We’re particularly interested in the many claims of pubs having no real proof of their advertised age, as well as how one goes about verifying the claims to begin with. The question always remains, should the truth ruin a great story? A truly fascinating look into building archaeology and what it can reveal.Links:James’ website with book news and blog: https://triskeleheritage.triskelepublishing.com/Buy the book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Historic-Building-Mythbusting-Uncovering-Archaeology/dp/1803994479What we’re drinking:Unteno AF Mango RadlerBlack Iris Brewery - Ale Destroyer New England IPASneinton Cider Company - Fifth ElementBeer Ladies Links: All the beerladies links: https://linktr.ee/beerladiesChristina’s book from Camra: The Devil’s in the Draught Lines - https://shorturl.at/syBFPThe Devil’s in the Draught Lines on Amazon: https://shorturl.at/qLS08Lisa’s Pub Guide: https://www.weirdodublinpubs.com/Thandi’s (occasional) blog: http://www.craftgeeksa.com/ Hosted on Acast.

In this week’s episode, Lisa, Thandi and Christina debate an ever-popular topic in beer (and other things!) - ethos. Does the ethos of a brewery influence you to buy, or not buy, their beer? What happens when breweries make good beer, but treat their staff badly, or are divisive in their politics? We chat about a few stories that have been in the news over the last few years, and debate our own feelings on separating art from artist.  Links:James Watt steps down: https://news.sky.com/story/brewdog-boss-calls-time-on-17-years-in-charge-13131591A timeline of Brewdog: https://www.thedrum.com/news/2022/01/24/brewdog-timeline-controversial-brandCommercial deception in Africa: https://www.anthropology-news.org/articles/problematic-brews-commercial-deception-modernity-and-the-pursuit-of-profit/Blue Moon (Coors) settles out of court after appropriation claims: https://www.just-drinks.com/news/belgium-belgian-brewers-resolve-dispute-with-coors-company-to-change-blue-moon-beer-labeling-packaging-and-taps/Osama Bin Lager, Kim Jong Ale and other controversial brews from Mitchell Brewing: https://www.gbnews.com/news/lincolnshire-pub-osama-bin-lager-controversial-beer-mocking-trumpMitchell Brewing website shut down after Osama Bin Lager sparks outrage: https://www.irishstar.com/news/us-news/osama-bin-lager-beer-controversy-32879973Bud Light boycott: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Bud_Light_boycottWhat we’re drinking:Chimay - BruneHope - Hop Off (NA)Beer Ladies Links: All the beerladies links: https://linktr.ee/beerladiesChristina’s book from Camra: The Devil’s in the Draught Lines - https://shorturl.at/syBFPThe Devil’s in the Draught Lines on Amazon: https://shorturl.at/qLS08Lisa’s Pub Guide: https://www.weirdodublinpubs.com/Thandi’s (occasional) blog: http://www.craftgeeksa.com/#beerladiespodcast #beerpodcast #beerculture Hosted on Acast.

This week we’re delving into the culture and customs around Irish Pints. Pints in Ireland are not simply having a drink - there are as many occasions as there are colours, and often the Irish customs are led by the occasion, whether wedding, funeral or after-work spontaneous pints. Ali Dunworth has written a marvellous, must-read book called A Compendium of Irish Pints documenting these nuances in a fun,  relatable way, with awesome illustrations by Stephen Heffernan. We’re chatting with Ali this week about the book and sharing experiences of pints. This is not to be missed!Links:Buy Ali’s the book here: A Compendium of Irish PintsAli’s website: Ali DunworthAli’s Instagram: Instagram (@alidunworth)A brief history or women, pubs and pints: A brief history of women, pubs and pints | IMAGE.ieRules of the Round: An expert’s secret rules of drinking in an Irish barFuneral Pints: The Irish and "Funeral Pints": History with the Catholic Church and comforting traditionsWhat we’re drinking:Good ol’ Guinness Westvleteren 8Beer Ladies Links: All the beerladies links: https://linktr.ee/beerladiesChristina’s book from Camra: The Devil’s in the Draught Lines - https://shorturl.at/syBFPThe Devil’s in the Draught Lines on Amazon: https://shorturl.at/qLS08Lisa’s Pub Guide: https://www.weirdodublinpubs.com/Thandi’s (occasional) blog: http://www.craftgeeksa.com/#beerladiespodcast #beerpodcast #irishbeer #pints Hosted on Acast.

Have you ever wondered whether climate was responsible for beer styles emerging? Well, we did! So we’re digging into it a little - with how regional crops led to some of the styles we know today, and whether there is evidence of climate affecting beer historically. We also chat about how globalisation and industrialisation has impacted beer production and our own expectations, as well as how climate change is already (and will) impact beer of the future. Listen in, as we found this one very interesting. Links: The Harvest Crisis of 1647-50: https://www.jstor.org/stable/40057648 Beer styles: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_style Evolution of Beer over time: https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/interactive/2023/beer-history-types-timeline/The regional uniqueness of Beer: https://www.ucd.ie/geary/static/publications/workingpapers/gearywp202013.pdf Various articles on how climate change is affecting beer today:https://pse.agriculturejournals.cz/pdfs/pse/2020/10/06.pdfhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41477-018-0263-1https://www.nature.com/articles/s41477-018-0263-1https://academicjournals.org/journal/AJAR/article-full-text/3943BE650358https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0168192309000392https://cordis.europa.eu/article/id/447330-climate-change-is-making-beer-taste-worsehttps://www.irishexaminer.com/news/arid-41245678.htmlWhat we’re drinking:🍻 Two Sides X 57 The Headline: Shop Local (IPA)🍻 Low Tide: Brune DMCBeer Ladies Links: All the beerladies links: https://linktr.ee/beerladiesChristina’s book from Camra: The Devil’s in the Draught Lines - https://shorturl.at/syBFPThe Devil’s in the Draught Lines on Amazon: https://shorturl.at/qLS08Lisa’s Pub Guide: https://www.weirdodublinpubs.com/Thandi’s (occasional) blog: http://www.craftgeeksa.com/#beerladiespodcast #beerpodcast #beerhistory  Hosted on Acast.
