  • The best podcast of its kind? Definitely

    I’ve been meaning to listen to this podcast for years having heard it referenced on the TWICB podcast. But I just kept forgetting as I was running at the time. Anyway I recently remembered and hands down the best of its kind. Great format and the guests are amazing. The way the podcast is pulled together is extremely listenable and professional. Brilliant and thank you

Todd describes a formative moment with Rodenbach and other Belgian styles that opened his eyes to what beer could taste like, beyond simply drinking for sport, leading him toward a lifelong curiosity and eventual brewing decisions.
The Thirst Time - Todd DiMatteo - Good Word Brewing
Q: What motivated the shift from working in front-of-house to starting Good Word Brewing and Public House?
A desire to carve out a personal name in beer, expand beyond hospitality, and build a space that could celebrate traditional English beer styles while embracing modern craft, all informed by a long personal history with European beer culture and home brewing.
The Thirst Time - Todd DiMatteo - Good Word Brewing
Q: How did your early experiences at Brick Store Pub influence your approach to beer and hospitality?
They instilled a deep respect for a wide, European-influenced beer program, the value of education around traditional styles like cask and lager, and the importance of a welcoming, investigative staff culture that could engage guests in meaningful conversations about beer.
