To whet your appetites for our big podcast with Weinstephan we chat with Dave Thadani who, with the good people of Phoenix Beers, is responsible for bringing not only bringing German deliciousness but also Sierra Nevada beers to our shores.
He shares some great insights about the road he travelled to become a beer rep, the challenges and joys of repping for such big labels and the difficulties of running global logistics in the time of Corona.
Oh and perhaps he shares which of the beers from his portfolio are his favourite children!

The guys are joined by Ben Carwyn & Ben Duval from Carwyn Cellars to talk about the Melbourne weather and all sorts of exciting things.
We hear the origin stories of Carwyn and the inspiration behind the decision to set up a craft beer shop all the way back in 2007.
After we lull them into a false sense of security they spill the beans on the plans not just for the Carwyn Collaborational International Virtual Festival [which sounds AMAZING] but also what will be lurking inside the CANVENT box[es] this year!
