184 - Black Box 2: Dangerous Ales, King River & Slow Lane

The Cool Room

It's the second of our tasting sessions with the brewers from the Carwyn x Coolroom Black Box and it's another doozy!

If you don't already have a black box [or if you'd like another!] head on over to our online store: https://the-coolroom-podcast.myshopify.com/products/carwyn-cellars-x-coolroom-2023-black-box

And as Tito from Carwyn drops in to remind us each of the Black Box beers is also available on tap at Carwyn on the day that their box number is opened!

It's Dangerous Damo's first visit to the Coolroom and we learn all about his back story as well as the ideas behind his pack contribution and all his plans for the future.

Nathan from King River returns to the show with a brand new beer style of his own creation - which plays havoc with naive Davydd's preprepared question sheet. So just what is a Schweizenbock?

And Alex from Slow Lane returns for his third visit to the Coolroom to share his first ever Barrel-Aged beer with an adjunct!

The brewers chat about the collaborations they'd like to do together, clever techniques for making such big beers and what they'd do differently if they were to make the beer again!
