Season 3 of the Hop Forward Podcast – an industry focused show hosted by beer broadcaster and brewery marketing consultant Nick Law – launches with the first in-person recording since the pandemic forced the United Kingdom into lockdown.
The episode – sponsored by Premier Systems Ltd – features Sheffield’s recently opened Heist Brew Co: a brewhouse and 30 draught-line taproom in the heart of Sheffield’s up-and-coming cultural quarter, Neepsend.
Taking on a derelict building at the start of 2020, owners Adam France and Dan Hunt share how they encountered every imaginable problem when trying to realise their dream of opening an American style taproom, including work coming to a standstill, investors pulling out and spending 6 weeks jet washing a floor, and discuss the many lessons learned along the way.
