Daftaboutcraft - Craft Beer Podcast - BONUS EPISODE - Durham Brewery (August 5, 2024)

Dave B and Dave D are waiting for your messages!

Last month, Durham Brewery celebrated their 30th birthday and released a special beer to mark the occasion. We were blown away with the barrel aged versions of Imperious that we tried last year, and were delighted to chat to owner and head brewer Elly Bell.

Elly took over the business and brewing operations from her father-in-law Steve Gibbs in 2020, and since then has overseen a huge amount of exciting and innovative beers. Sumerian, the brewery's 30th anniversary beer, is no different. Described as a wheat beer, this 8.4% honey and date concoction is easily one of the most complex and interesting beers we've had on the podcast.

Elly was also one of the most informative and entertaining guests we've had, so we thought it only right to release a bonus episode which details what it's like to run a brewery day-to-day, while coming up with lots of innovative new recipes!
