Rhythm and Brews is the craft beer and music pairing podcast. In each episode, we match beers to music in an attempt to make the beer taste better, but in reality, we use it mostly to force people to listen to our questionable music tastes. Featuring great guests from the UK and international beer scenes, including the likes of The Kernel, Wander Beyond Brew, Signature Brew, Yeastie Boys, Fullers and Pete Brown.
