Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inside Anspach & Hobday: The Rise of London Black
Q: What are the biggest challenges and opportunities for independent brewers today?
Raising awareness, navigating taxation and regulatory costs, and fostering industry collaboration to push for favorable policies, while leveraging co-branding and community-focused marketing to keep beer culture vibrant and accessible.
Inside Anspach & Hobday: The Rise of London Black
Q: What technical choices set Nitro Porter apart from a standard porter?
Nitro uses nitrogen to alter the beer's equilibrium and create very small bubbles when dispensed, producing a creamier mouthfeel; agitation and temperature control are essential to keep the nitrogen dissolved and to generate the right texture.
Inside Anspach & Hobday: The Rise of London Black
Q: How did you position London Black to stand up to big brands like Guinness?
By leaning into London provenance, strong glassware and packaging, and a brand story that resonated with local heritage, which helped distinguish London Black from clones and created trust among consumers.
From Music to Brewing: The Colbier Journey
Q: Can you tell us how Colbier came to be? What was the spark that kicked it all off?
Mike explains that his brewing journey started from a music background, running a craft beer bar, and learning on the job across several pubs before deciding to strike out on his own with Colbier, driven by a desire for independence and a shared passion for music.
Elevating Independent Breweries Through Branding: With Tim Weaver
Q: What sparked your focus on beer branding, and why do independent breweries need your services?
Tim explains that after years in the creative industry, he saw a gap where independents lacked the branding support to tell their stories effectively. His mission is to level the playing field and provide practical, affordable guidance that helps breweries stand out and grow profits.
