Show Notes
We're back at Grainstock for another special edition of The Crafty Pint Podcast, featuring a lineup of guests offering a cross-section of the topics covered at the Voyager Craft Malt-curated industry gathering.
First up in the Lallemand-sponsored podcast studio at the Whitton Malt House is event founder Stu Whytcross, providing an update on all things Voyager, including their altered trajectory, international interest, maturing projects, and their excitement for a new malted rice product.
There's more international flavour next, as Katelyn Grajewski, AKA That Malt Girl from the USA, drops in to share some insights from the world of US craft beer and malting, including how the industry there is trying to remind consumers of why the pint matters.
Back on home soil, we have Mark Brain and Matt Stitt from Broulee Brewhouse on the NSW South Coast. The brewpub in the coastal village has been punching above its weight since a few locals decided to give the area a community hub, focusing on the importance of creating an experience for everyone that visits.
Before we wrap up, Lallemand technical director Richard Chamberlin enters the host seat straight from his presentation for an update from the studio sponsors.
We'll have more from Grainstock too, including a chat with Gourmet Farmer Matthew Evans on the next weekly news show and an in-depth interview with Jervis Bay Brewing co-founder Oisín Sweeney in the coming weeks.

More from The Crafty Pint Podcast
"If you don't want to fail, then don't do anything."
"It should feel fun, it should feel celebratory, we should all feel a part of it."
"When I first moved to Australia, I felt Australian beer was so far behind... I think we're at least on par with the US right now."
"The freedom in beer pairing is much, much bigger than with wine."
It's all change at The Crafty Pint Podcast. Well, if not all change, then certainly a fair bit of it in terms of format, scheduling and frequency.
