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!

We apologise in advance for this episode in our lager series on Kellerbier – it may cause more questions than we answer!
You will have seen beers called Kellerbier, you may have seen beers listed under the style, but what exactly is a Kellerbier and why is this style so confusing? We attempt to answer this for you and share some examples you can try. But as Em Sauter says in beer there are a lot of right answers!
Beers we tried:
aU Ungespunddet Naturtrub from Mahrs Brau
Keller Pils from Lost & Grounded
Zwickl from Cloudwater & Braybrooke Beer Co
Have you tried any good Kellerbiers lately? Let us know!

You know we love a challenge here at A Woman’s Brew, so we thought we’d create our own beer challenge this year, alongside our beer goals.
We look at the Drink Harder challenge for 2024, which we will take part in again and then think about tasks we could add to our own A Woman’s Brew beer challenge.
Will you be following the Drink Harder challenge or do you have challenge suggestions for us? Let us know!

At the end of last year, Jo got stuck in Germany. Tori took the opportunity to record an episode with her husband Rik. You will have heard us talk about our long-suffering partners, if you’ve been listening to us for a while. Both of our husbands are very supportive of what we do – luckily for us!
Rik answers Tori’s questions about being a beer widow – what’s it like going to different beer places with her, what are his experiences within the beer community and how does he feel about holidays being a bit beer focused! Oh, and there is a bunch of Japan chat too.
Do you want to hear from Rik again, or maybe Jo’s husband Gordon? Let us know!

Beers we tried:
Asahi Super Dry
Akita Inu Beer
Summer Beer by Newbarns
Pink Lemonade Rice Lager by Donzoko
Have you had any good rice lagers lately? Let us know!
