One of our oldest friends of the show is Simon Livingstone, Co-Owner and Head Brewer at Hochelaga institution, L'Espace Public. Simmo (as Cee calls him) jumped back on to hang with Cee and chat about what they've been doing since his last time on the pod over four years ago, the success of their low ABV Lager, the move to tall cans to please retail stores and how that affects their production, their dedication to short cans amidst a tall can-friendly market, how "the beer that built the house" -

Arguably the most well-known craft brewery in Canada, Montreal's Messorem Bracitorium have absolutely dominated the global landscape over the past seven years. Co-Founder and Graphic Designer Marc-André Filion jumped back on the pod for the first time in over two years to chat with Cee and Nate on our longest podcast of all time, spanning over 6 hours!! This broke the Third Moon record of just over 5 hours that held for 2.5 years - incredible. Filion talked about their brand visuals update, how

One of our big goals for 2026 and 2027 is to expand the pod to breweries in regions that we haven't typically covered, and this one is certainly a first. Hailing from Whitehorse in The Yukon in North Western Canada, Woodcutter's Brewing has been doing some super unique stuff for the last six years and change. Founder and Head Brewer Scott Shailer sat down with Cee to chat about their "only brew it once" approach to their beers, his eclectic career that took him to Ottawa, Gatineau and Whitehorse,

One of the most legendary and impactful Ontario breweries for us from around the time the podcast began is Toronto's Burdock Brewery, and it's kinda wild this is only their first appearance. Co-Founder Matthew Park and Head Brewer John Jenkinson joined Cee and Nate to talk through both of their histories in beer (including John's first ever Head Brewer job and Burdock's Edinburgh roots), why they decided to focus mostly on Lagers and Saisons, how their wine beer hybrid obsession began and their

One of the newest breweries in Ontario (at the time of recording) is Prince Edward County's Aurum. Meaning "gold" in Latin, their slogan "Drink Gold" is incredibly appropriate for a brewery that focuses mostly on German and Czech-style Lagers and Ales. Co-Founder and Head Brewer Prat joined Cee and Nate to chat about his eclectic beer history - from India to Ontario, how he met his Co-Founder Joe and how they came across the space that turned into Aurum, why they chose the County and why they focus

It feels like almost every year we end up taking some sort of a short pause over the summer for obvious reasons, but in 2026, it was a little longer than usual. Both Cee and Nate were off galavanting across the globe, so we figured the best way to ease back into the pod was to run through all the shenanigans they got up to. Here's some teasers to get you going: Nate spent time in glorious Mexico soaking up the few beer options available, along with sampling a much wider variety of fire in Rimouski

One of the coolest and most innovative brewery collaborations this decade is Vancouver, BC's Threefold. A shared taproom comprised of three independent breweries - Temporal Artisan Ales, Slow Hand Beer Co., and Boombox Brewing - Threefold is the perfect manifestation of what combining your powers in the craft beer industry can look like. We had a bit of a podcast party, featuring Tristan Stewart of Temporal, Kurtis Sheldon of Slow Hand, and Phil Spurgeon + Kent Courtice of Boombox, and we got into

One of the blessings of living in Hamilton is the proximity to the US border. Since relocating in 2022, Cee has been digging into the Western New York craft beer scene, and the latest discovery might be the fave yet. Based in beautiful Orchard Park, Wayland Brewing doesn't feel like a suburban brewery - the taproom is a stunning 20-foot-plus atrium with floor-to-ceiling windows, a killer patio with a full-size bocce court, boasting an impeccable kitchen, four LUKR taps and a beer lineup to satisfy

There's no better feeling than having no expectations for a brewery visit and being blown away. That's exactly how Cee felt after visiting Thirty Eight O Six during a recent trip to his motherland of Australia. Nestled in the South Eastern suburb of Berwick in Melbourne, Co-Founders Lachie (Brewer) and Zac (Chef) have turned their industrial unit into something you'd be more likely to find in hipster city neighbourhoods like Collingwood or Fitzroy.

One of Cee's major bucket list items is to get out to Europe and experience the rich beer heritage firsthand. In the meantime, the next best thing is to hang out at the satellite brewery for Bavaria's Hofbräuhaus just over the border in Buffalo, New York. During our last visit in December, we connected with Braumeister Scott Shuler for a tour, which of course turned into a podcast. Scott and Cee chatted about their unique 450+ year history, why it's government-owned and Bavarian laws apply to

While we talk about hops on essentially every episode, we rarely get to do a deep dive into the topic with someone who actually works in the field (get it? field? hop field? ha). Alex Diamandas of Yakima Chief Hops joined Cee and Nate to chat about his transition from home brewing to professional brewer to hop slanger, the big hack of Idaho 7 in the whirlpool, how hop extracts are actually made and the fundamental differences between Dynaboost and Hyperboost, how the HBC program works to transition
