Craft Beer Channel - The Corner's Arms

Expert on the horizon! Every so often the Moon Under Water summons someone who really really knows their stuff, and today is one such occasion, for ambling into the pub today is Jonny Garrett from Craft Beer Channel. Jonny settles in for a delightfully detailed and colourful chat with Landlord Robbie and Regular Dan to *craft* a pub jam packed with lovely beers and warmth. One for the hopologists but also a very rewarding conversation for anyone who might have even had just a sip of the odd Pilsner. It even takes us to the most northerly pub on Earth in a place where polar bears roam the ice sheets. You can catch Jonny on YouTube, his website, and his brand new book The Meaning of Beer is out now!To get in touch with the show [email protected] is the place to send it, and we're @moonunderpod on your socials.

Reverend Kate Bottley - The Jesus Arms

Reverend Kate Bottley - The Jesus Arms

Do Reverends and pubs go together? This week's guest answers this question with an emphatic yes, as The Moon Under Water opens its doors to its very first member of the church, Reverend Kate Bottley. Kate talks about the deep links between priest and pub. She reveals how she once cancelled evening church services to host a pub quiz, and spills the communion wine on what priests use for communion wine. There's also talk of consecrating jägerbombs, trying out coffins at trade shows, and monks bringing cases of beer to Kate's door. A reminder that The Moon Under Water will now be serving up guest episodes in one helping; think of it as one stronger pint as opposed to two halves.
