I’ve been listening to the Brewing Network since 2009. Their early shows help lead me to where I am today in the world of fermented beverages. I’ve really loved distillation and whisk(e)y almost as long as I’ve been passionate about beer. I want to love this show, but can’t. There’s something that can be advantageous where the interviewers doesn’t know anything about what they asking questions about – I’m a broadcast journalist trained in radio as well with the Air Force – but they miss SO much in the interviews to ask that gets covered in the beer shows. It’s really frustrating wanting to broaden my knowledge of distillation, but I spend more time yelling at my phone or speaker than I get out of it with new knowledge. So much of my yelling is how do you not know this!?! PLEASE GET A PRO DISTILLER FOR A COHOST. Then there’s the low bar of production quality from time to time. The latest show, the audio levels we SO off between the mics in the mix. I had to crank my volume up to here anything the guests and Warren said, but JP would blow out my speakers. Maybe in a few more years it’ll be there, but now that podcasts are a thing vs when the BN started, someone else has bound to got it together out the gate. Sad.

Now that I have your attention, listen to it. It’s awesome, and you’ll learn something. Make more shows!

Once again JP you Beardy and the crew hit one out of the park.

If you have an interest is booze and want to learn more, good place to start. Some really cool distilleries have been interviewed.

Awesome show ! Keep it up

Awesome job! JP and Beardy are doing the Lord’s work exploring the world of spirits and distilling.

JP is the single greatest podcast host of our generation, nay, all of history!

I’m a homebrewer, and this seriously had me looking up how to legally distill. Sadly, I can’t do that at home, so I’ll listen to this amazing show and enjoy the spirits their guests create.

Awesome podcast, I never miss an episode! Keep up the good work!! Subscribe today, you won’t regret it!! 🍻🍻

A cool idea for a podcast - chatting with people who make booze! I like how it's not just a tasting show, but it's actually interesting lol

Great show with lots more to learn. For all levels of knowledge, I’m sorta novice at this stuff but learning a lot with each show, and having a great time doing so. JP and Beardy always put on an entertaining show and have a great ‘know some, wanna learn more’ demeanor that we can all benefit from. Let them ask the dumb questions we all have. Great, knowledgeable guests, so far, as well, though only about 4 shows in. Just listen and stop reading!
