The Royal Queensland Beer Awards is an important event in the Australian beer calendar for craft breweries around the country. It's one of the first chances they get to receive feedback on their beers and take that onboard for any future improvements and tweaks. Taking home a nice trophy and some medals is also nice! Adsy and Joel chat with Ari from The Royal National Agricultural and Industrial Association of Queensland (RNA) about all of the work that goes into organising a competition of this level. Head to your favourite podcast platform to listen to the EXTENDED version of this episode, with even more cool insights and chat with Ari. We love our amazing sponsors Bintani, Konvoy Kegs, Craft Punks Canning, Rallings Labels and CRAFTD. Glass once again, our thanks. As industry people supporting the little guys like us, it's invaluable what they do for the industry, but also in support of us. A special thanks also to both Amber Hour App for giving us use of their app, and Beers Illustrated for providing us with our awesome logos and continual support when we accidently delete them! And it goes without saying, thanks to Hiker Brewing Concern for giving us excellent beer many times a week, and letting run amok in their brewery more times per week than anywhere else. And special thanks to you, our fans who may have watched or listened to this episode. Essentially, you're the reason we're doing this and it makes a world of difference. We could do it without you, but it wouldn't be as fun and probably not as worthwhile. #craftbeer #craftbeerpodcast #beer #brisbane #brewery #aussiebeervoyage #abv #craftbeerpodcast #podcast #australia #craftbeer #aussiecraftbeer #podcastinterviews #bintani #konvoykegs #craftd #craftappedaustralia #hops #beer #malt #homebrew #listeneverywhere #apple #google #spotify #youtube
