In this episode you'll learn how casks are the underappreciated linchpin of the distilling industry and how their future is looking very uncertain amongst rising demand, restricted supply and changing regulations.
Martin Purvis is a trans-national treasure trove of information and analysis of the spirits industry. From Manchester to Edinburgh to Kentucky, via Africa, Martin has been building expertise in how commodities drive commerce. Casks have become his focus over the last few decades and he has worked with William Grant and Kelvin Cooperage, amongst others. Martin explains how cask availability, quality and regulations are changing rapidly, resulting in testing times for distillers.Support the show

In this episode you'll learn why independent professional, unbiased journalism is vital to the long term health of the drinks industry.
With Foxy unavailable we jump straight into an interview with Maggie Kimberl. Maggie has been a professional critic and journalist covering spirits in general, and Bourbon in particular, for over a decade. The industry has boomed in that time but the dream job she once had is heading towards a nightmare. The twin challenges of declining media budgets and the increase of "influencers" peddling half truths for big bucks are making it harder and harder to make a living. Does it matter? Only if we want a thriving and worthwhile industry...Support the show

In this episode you'll learn what the future holds for non alcoholic beers. Brendan Williams ran the global non alc business for Carlsberg and literally wrote the book on how to roll out a successful NA strategy for other brewers, large and small. Now he's put himself in the game as the co-founder of a new functional NA beer: NuWave.
We discuss the current state of the category, the consumer trends driving growth, the new occasions that are being opened up and the critical role that investment schemes play in creating the incentive for true innovation.

In this episode you'll learn what the beverage trends are in South Korea as Foxy recounts his observations and insights from two (!) recent trips to Seoul.
In another of Foxy's Tales, Biz Bev Pod's very own Padraig Fox gives his view on all he learned in Korea: from robot waiters to "no brand" cola to "Kelly's" local lager and the 24 hr MEGA coffee culture, we take a tour of one of the most exciting markets in the world right now.

In this episode you'll learn how the "third age" of coffee has presented challenges and opportunities for coffee distributors. Paddy Sands and Michael Ingle explain how a very safe, stable, well established coffee business decided the time was right to take a risk and vertically integrate.
The new Roasthouse is a big investment for a small company like Tall Order but it's already paying dividends for a company that had generations of knowledge of the coffee business. What changed in recent years to drive a change in strategy for a a successful distributor to become involved in roasting? We talk sourcing, roasting, tonnage, blending, margins and "cupping"...Support the show

In this episode you'll learn why Will & Foxy are pressing pause on producing new podcast episodes for the moment.
63 episodes is an odd number of episodes to have in our first season of BizBevPod but it just turned out that was because we had so much success so quickly that we didn't take our planned first season break, we just kept going, delivering brilliant insights from fantastic guests from all around the world.
However, now's the right time for us to take a breath and plan out the next season of BizBevPod and we are looking for partners to help explode the potential of our podcast, already the most influential in the global drinks industry. If you have an idea and are willing to work with us, drop us a line at [email protected]

In this episode you'll learn how one brewer is working on a technology that would allow beer to be concentrated down and reformulated back up without an impact on its quality, opening up a whole world of possibilities.
Jasmin Vollrath is a "conservative" German brewer with experience brewing every beer style imaginable but she's working with Alfa Laval on their "Revos" technology. This has the potential to revolutionise how beer is processed, transported and served. We couldn't help but get excited by the ways this could work.
We also talk about the Hagstragavanza beer festival, lighthouses and what teenagers really want from their parents...Support the show
