A Woman’s Brew
A Woman’s Brew Podcast follows the ‘beer-ventures’ of two beer-loving women – Joanne Love & Tori Powell – on their mission to get more people drinking and talking about great craft beers. The duo look to infuse equal parts education, playfulness, and story-telling with a dash of chaos across their episodes with the aim to make the craft beer hobby more fun and approachable for all – made by women for everyone! Tori and Joanne are both UK based, but weave in their US connections with their love of travel to bring you – dear listeners – stories from across the industry and across the globe. They hope that you’ll grab a drink of your choosing and join them for a round or few – CHEERS!

This week we bring you a touch of beer education. One of our favourite beers is Duchesse De Bourgogne – a Flanders Red ale. But what should you expect from this style and how does it relate to Oud Bruin, also know as Flanders Brown?
We look at tasting notes for these styles, the history behind them and sprinkle in a few fun facts. How different really are these two styles and which versions do we recommend you try?
Have you ever wondered about historical beer and what is might taste like – let us know your thoughts!

Welcome to A Woman’s Brew, where women talk about beer!
The lovely Ele from DMC Brewery chats to us this week about ginger beer! As a brewery that specialises in ginger beer, and what Ele refers to as ‘other weird beers’, she is definitely an authority on the subject.
We discuss the process of brewing ginger beer, the choice of ingredients and how their Viking aesthetic lends quite nicely to not only their brews but also events that they visit.
And – what makes the perfect s’more? Possibly the most important conversation we’ve ever had on the podcast!
Let us know how you make yours in the comments!
Check out DMC’s beers here:

And find out which events they will be at here:

We know we’re late, but in a galaxy far, far away we were on time! Happy (belated) Star Wars day!
Star Wars and beer seem to be inextricably linked – in the fictional world and ours. We drink through some Star Wars beers from our stashes and talk about alcoholic beverages in the series.
We also see what Star Wars drinks you could get at Disney – who wants to join us on a Podcast road trip to Galaxy’s Edge?!
Let us know who your fave (and worst) Star Wars characters are in the comments – we won’t judge!

We’re getting salty – with seaweed. You may know seaweed as an ingredient in Asian cuisine, or even as a superfood – but have you had it in beer?
This week we try 3 beers that use seaweed as part of the brew:
· Meet Me Underwater by Brass Castle – a red IPA with Mosaic, Sabro and seaweed from SeaGrown
· Trawler’s Dread by Harbwr – a black IPA with Pembrookshire seaweed
· Umibozu by Tartarus – a squid ink, seaweed and yuzu gose
We also hit you up with the fun seaweed facts and an amusing Amazon review!
Seaweed – yeah or nah? Let us know in the comments!

Glassware! One of the best and worst things about beer – and by worst, I mean there is always a new glass you just HAVE to have!

We are taking you on an adventure this week, along the Oregon Trail!
When we saw that Elusive had produced an Oregon Trail trilogy, building on their award winning West Coast IPA, we knew we needed to get out of our comfort zones and try all the beers.
As well as drinking through Oregon Trail, Double Oregon Trail and Midnight Oregon Trail, we give you some fun facts about the history of the trail and the game that inspired the beer.
It’s always good to go back to a style that isn’t your favourite and try it again – it builds your palate and lets you see if it has changed. Which beer style do you need to go back and revisit?

All hail our AI overlords! We’re hitting on the hottest trend in podcasting – using AI to write scripts and prompts – let’s see how it goes!
Jo was skeptical, but Tori thought it was hilarious, so here we are reading from a script written by a robot. We also check over some prompts for episodes to see if they would work for us, and Tori pitches us our own solo podcasts (for when Jo get’s too famous and dumps her!)
How do you think AI did? Do you want to hear any of the prompts we chat about or start a beer book club with us? Let us know!
