Episode Notes

Today’s show is part of a series of panel talks recorded at 2019’s Fynefest—The annual festival held by Fyne Ales, at the home of their brewery and family farm in Cairndow, Scotland.

In this episode we debate about one of my favourite subjects—cask ale—and why it means so much to both British brewing traditions, and to modern beer culture. Our panelists in this session were Stuart Ross of Magic Rock Brewing Company, Abbeydale Brewery’s Laura Rangeley and Doreen Joy Barber of Cloudwater. Plus, there’s a special guest appearance at the start from Cloudwater’s Jay Krause while we waited for Doreen to find the venue, where we hosted these talks.

Fyne Ales have been huge friends and supporters of Pellicle since day one, and it was a privilege to be invited to host these talks. We were gutted not to be able to return to the Glen in 2020 due to the pandemic, but are already relishing returning in 2021 with gusto. 

Host: Matthew Curtis 
Guests: Stuart Ross — Magic Rock, Laura Rangeley — Abbeydale, Doreen Joy Barber — Cloudwater, Jay Krause — Cloudwater
