This week we chat to Shandy from Riders Brewing Co. A two-year old Melbourne-based brewery they have been quietly doing their thing without much fanfare. However, with capacity soon to triple, we get the lowdown on their beers and plans. We also talk about IPA and whisky, skateboarding, and (as usual) share some ill informed opinions about the machinations of local breweries.
You can find Riders Brewing Co here:
We talked about the Glenfiddich IPA whisky:
