This week we are finally bringing you another interview! We connect with Tom Canning, founder and organiser of the Berkshire Beer Festival. From missing kegs to randomly sized fence posts, Tom talks us through how he grew his festival from 80 attendees to the successful event that has been running for 13 years. We ask the hard questions – like how do you even begin to choose all the beer?! Tom also talks us through his other pursuits (check out Beer in Berkshire) and his recommendations for a night in Reading. What is your favourite beer festival? Let us know!

219 - What makes an Independent Brewery? SIBA's Indie Beer Campaign

A Woman’s Brew Podcast follows the ‘beer-ventures’ of two beer-loving women – Joanne Love & Tori Powell – on their mission to get more people drinking and talking about great craft beers. The duo look to infuse equal parts education, playfulness, and story-telling with a dash of chaos across their episodes with the aim to make the craft beer hobby more fun and approachable for all – made by women for everyone! Tori and Joanne are both UK based, but weave in their US connections with their love of travel to bring you – dear listeners – stories from across the industry and across the globe. They hope that you’ll grab a drink of your choosing and join them for a round or few – CHEERS!
