With any luck, one day soon, you’ll see a Beer O’Clock post that isn’t just a new podcast episode… Lots of stuff is going on behind the scenes, which will hopefully turn into a rush of posts in the not too distant, post-GBW world. In any case, sit back and enjoy some seriously outdated content. It’s so outdated that we said we’d be recording something in a couple of weeks & that’s already been released for a few weeks!

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, although recent restrictions are making this difficult…

This episode may be the latest one yet… We recorded this ages ago so the news is just as you all like it; particularly out of date! Otherwise I think it’s a pretty good episode where we just chat news and beers we enjoyed. There’s heaps of new stuff coming up on the podcast feed. This is the first of our attempts to go fortnightly, so we’ll see how that goes. As usual please don’t hesitate to provide feedback, we love making the show better for you guys.
