Episode 16 – Show Notes
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation we are once again recording remotely. We’ve invested in a new microphone so hopefully some of the audio quality issues are fixed from last time. Once again Dylan has done a great job editing the podcast into something that is hopefully listenable – as usual we’re always keen to hear your feedback so please hit us up if you’ve got any comments, questions or suggestions.
If this is your first time listening to a Beer O’Clock Australia podcast, welcome! We change the segments up a little each month, however most months we’ll discuss some of the latest news from the beer world, we’ll talk about some beers that we’ve been enjoying over the last month & we’ll crack something interesting from my cellar.
This month, due to a lack of organisation, we cover the news both COVID-19 related & non-COVID-19 related. We have a chat about our drinking & buying patterns in quarantine, highlight some breweries that we’ve supported & talk about some new releases. Finally we finish by adding “The King of Beers” into our Ranking of Lagers.
