Originally from Australia, Craig moved to Canada in 2010 and stumbled upon a unique challenge called "365 days of beer." Intrigued by the idea, he and his roommate decided to participate, taking a selfie with a different beer every day for a year. Little did Craig know that this seemingly silly endeavor would spark his passion for beer and lead him on an unexpected journey. As Craig delved deeper into the world of beer, he realized that there was a lack of craft beer podcasts that resonated with him. Inspired by this realization, Craig and his girlfriend decided to take matters into their own hands and start their own podcast. Initially, they never anticipated it would become anything more than a fun side project to complement their other endeavors. However, their podcast gradually gained traction and became a meaningful part of their lives.
