Episode 40: Not For Twitter (NFT)

Points Of Brew

In this episode, we wade into the muddy waters of discussing supermarket craft beer after Salt Beer Factory kindly sent us their latest addition to ASDA's shelves out to try; NFT IPA. A 6.5% IPA which incorporates the latest trend of buying and collecting digital assets also known as NFT's, this beer got people talking upon its press release being sent out and the beers being received.

We try this beer, brewed in collaboration with Gwei-Lo, on the show before comparing it against a non-supermarket beer; the latest release in Northern Monk's Thought Bubble series, a 7% DDH IPA. Our discussion sees us cover cost, availability, quality and the impact on the industry amongst other things as part of our assessment of supermarket craft beer. This show was recorded at Yorkshire Craft Beers and thanks to them for hosting us once more.

Aaron also tells us about his time spent dressed as a viking in York, along with a couple of other trips he has been on since we last recorded. I also explain a brief period of radio silence since my son, Sebastian, was born and how parenthood has been so far. We also look on to where we may be recording our next episode/s.

Huge thanks to Salt for sending this beer out to us and their sending of it in no way influenced our views on the beer nor did we request the beer to be sent out to us. For more info, and to buy it direct, head on over to their webshop
