Hear from four different speakers on various aspects of the industry:
Jon Moore, representing BrewCon & the Beer Boars Brew Club, on the growth of home brewing as a hobby, how to find your local home brew club, and London’s yearly home brew convention
Claire Russell, Founder of Homebrewtique, on the business of home brewing and the story behind her unique home brew kits
Andy Parker, Owner & Head Brewer of Elusive Brewing, on going from home brewing to building his own commercial brewery
