How much do the fine details really matter when brewing beer? Equipment, timing, brewer quirks, tiny tweaks… do they make a difference, or is it all foam and no substance?

To find out, we set a challenge:

​

🧪 One recipe. Same ingredients. Five brews.

​

Four of Tassie’s favourite breweries: Moo Brew, Hopfields Brewery, Van Dieman Brewing, King Island Brewhouse + the Hobart Brewers homebrew club all brewed the exact same beer.. or did they?

 

On Friday 15 August at Shambles Brewery, we tasted the results while chatting with the brewers behind the beers. Take a look at the video of the event here:
