164 - Hawkers

It finally happened! Mazen Hajjar welcomes the Coolroom to Hawkers for a live show with plenty of great stories about his journey in brewing.

We hear all about his first adventures in brewing back in Lebanon and what led him to set up in Melbourne. We get to taste 6 of his great beers and hear all about the team that makes them reality.

What are the "things he said he'd never do" that he's gone on to do, and why does he still check the ratings of his beers?

Davydd goes off script and starts drinking hazies as Mazen explains the virtues of stouts for the Australian summer.

Oh and you want scoops? We got scoops! Listen in to find out what's currently ageing in Hawkers barrels and upcoming explorations of terroir!
