Due to weight restrictions we needed to get some beers drunk! So here are 3 new entries to the ranking of lagers.

BrewAsia Day 2 - 5 interviews, lots of beers, lots of chat. 

Interview from the BrewAsia Media Booth with Germaine Clerx, International Sales Manager for Blefa. We talked about how they produce 1.7m kegs a year, which are sold in every country from A-Z. They're accredited to 4 ISO Standards and have industry leading welding technology. Germaine also kept us plied with Pilsner throughout the 2 days for which we are eternally grateful.

Interview from the BrewAsia Media Booth with Leon & Liz, Co-owners & brewers from Tenggara Brewing Co in Indonesia. They are home brewers, turned contract brewers who after a lengthy 2 year process were finally able to produce their first beers in February 2024. This is a really good chat that covers the difficulties of brewing in Indonesia as well as the close community they've found themselves among.

Interview from the BrewAsia Media Booth with Paul Jones, Co-founder of Cloudwater Brew Co  in Manchester, UK. This was a really thoughtful wide ranging conversation that delved into the depths of the industry. If you've only got time for one of these interviews I would make it this one. Paul was one of the key note speakers at BrewAsia & we were privileged to have him join us.

Interview from the BrewAsia Media Booth with George Wade, Co-Founder & COO of Zevero. We discussed their Carbon Management solutions, how it helps the brewing industry & the planet as well as talking about how employees get to work can impact your carbon footprint.

It's a really good chat with an engaging guest who is passionate about what he does.  More information can be found here: https://www.zevero.earth/  The Decarbonisation Guide George...

The inevitable happened, we went a little too hard and missed a daily... Thankfully our day 6 was relatively light on the beer front - so we simply combined the two into one.

The 4th of 6 installments in our coverage of SEA Brew & related beer events in Thailand. Today we cover our slightly unusual day, whilst also taking in Thailand Brew Fest & The Londoner Brewpub (aka Brewprub or Brewplub)

Our interview from yesterday, live on the SEA Brew floor, with Supapong Pruenglampoo (Toon) & Prapavee Hematat (Bamee) from United People's Brewery & Group B. Group B is a leading Thai Craft Beer distributor & United People's Brewery is currently being commissioned as a collective space for the brewers of Thailand to legally brew.
