It's our final episode of 2023 and what a great one to finish with - Pat from Willie the Boatman joins Warren and Davydd for a trip through the last 10 years of the brewery!
As a little christmas bonus we've reduced the price of our last two tasting packs for the episode to just $25 - you can find them here: https://the-coolroom-podcast.myshopify.com/products/willie-the-boatman-6-pack
We start out the interview with Pat riding his bike around [and nearly into] Shell Harbour before we settle down with a can of Albo and the sounds of mullet and prawns leaping in the water.
We hear how he brewed the first NEIPA in Australia [direct all correspondence to him], his time in reality TV and the changes he's made to some of the most iconic recipes from the brewery.
Who was Willie the Boatman? Why has 2023 been his hardest year in the industry and what keeps him inspired to keep going?
All these and more questions are answered in this ripper episode - with thanks to Lug+Carrie ebikes and 1980s stack hats!
