This week on your favourite beer n' music podcast we discuss how South Americans forego the lisp, very average London coffee with a safety lid, why we'd have to sit down to get through a Bill Callahan gig these days and why this week's beers as good as Bruce Springsteen and Destroyer. There's a hard baked snack of the week and a game of Beer or Owl or Trowel, which features the excellently named Combat Wombat. Our two beers are the incredible Verdant Headband and Salt Beer Factory's killer brew Citra Neipa. Music comes from BITW and The James Clarke Five.

Episode #7 Dan Bejar's on the beer

Episode six asks many questions of you: Like are Welsh castles good for killing time with children? And is Killing Eve any good? Why don't you see Castlemaine XXXX any more? What is the most gammon-y sport? Would you drink a 5,000 year old beer? There is Huw's recipe for his own take on Corn Beef Hash. For our beer match-up a couple of British classics go head to head: it's Wainwright's Golden Ale v Robinson's Old Tom (Ginger variety). There's a stone cold American classic for our snack of the week. Music is recent offerings from Wrexham's Eitha Da and Sunderland's Roxy Girls.
