On this episode of the Hop Forward Podcast, we delve into the often-overlooked art of selling craft beer. While we've covered a wide range of brewing topics in the past, it's time to explore the other crucial half of the beer industry: sales.

We examine the challenges of selling beer and the importance of building trust and relationships with customers. Featuring the insights of Darren Filsell and Ben Stephenson, seasoned bar owners who are about to launch a Belgian Beer Cafe, Devil’s Depot, in Chesterfield, this episode provides valuable perspectives on what bar owners look for when purchasing beer from breweries.

Tune in for an insightful discussion that sheds light on the craft beer sales landscape and offers tips for success in a saturated market with wavering consumer confidence.

Nick is also joined by Will and Ben from Charles Faram to discuss dry hopping techniques and how everybody's brewhouse is unique when it comes to adding hops on the cold side.
