The Bubble 22 – Farming (with Ballykilcavan Farm & Brewing)

You’re listening to the bubble, the podcast turning beer inside out.

This month we talk to David of Ballykilcavan Farm & Brewing about being a 13th generation farmer presented with incredible challenges – the realities of arable farming, global warming, the price of grain – and how he hopes the opening of a brewery will assure his family estate's future. We also geek out about the brilliance of barley and David's annual wet hop beer, made with hops also from his farm.

This episode was part of a *sponsored deal* with the Irish food board, Bord Bia. You can watch the video we did together here: https://youtu.be/jBe3i-WPjsQ
