Cask Ale: Why It Deserves Heritage Status
In this episode of The Beer Rep Chats With, we sit down with Jonny Garrett – beer writer, YouTuber, and co-founder of The Craft Beer Channel – for an in-depth conversation about the future of cask ale and the UK beer industry.
Jonny shares how his love for beer began in British pubs, how the pandemic impacted cask beer, and why he's campaigning to have cask ale recognised by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage. We also explore:
- The evolving world of beer publishing and writing
- The role of influencers vs traditional beer writers
- Challenges facing UK breweries: market access, rising costs, and changing tastes
- The birth of The Craft Beer Channel
- A peek at his upcoming homebrew project
If you love beer culture, support independent UK breweries, or are passionate about preserving pub traditions, this episode is a must-listen.
