Welcome to We Are Beer People - a podcast all about the many different people who help us enjoy beer.Today I'm meeting with Emma Inch, beer podcaster and communicator that was voted UK beer writer of the year in 2018 and has a background in radio, DJing, podcasting, writing, judging, teaching and social work. And Emma's recent project is called Same Again? A Podcast About Beer Pubs & Mental Health. It's a deft, informative and supportive look at the interplay been these three elements told through the experiences of those in the beer world and we'll talk about this in the podcast as well as Emma's journey to getting where we are today. Emma lives in Brighton and we were spoilt for choice with the number of fantastic places we could have visited. And in the end we chose to duck out of the rain and into the The Hole In The Wall, a beautifully welcoming pub, tucked away just off the seafront, with an excellent selection of beer and cider on keg and cask and from near and far. So let's head out of the rainy day and into the pub, collapse our brollies, hang up our coats, order a beer, pull up a chair and have a chat with one of the beer people.Follow us to stay updated: Website: www.wearebeerpeople.co.ukSocial media: @wearebeerpeople on X (Twitter) and InstagramGet in touch on email: wearebeerpeoplepod@gmail.comEmma Inch:Podcast - Same Again?

We can travel nearly anywhere to have a pint with locals. But there's one place we often find ourselves, a place where no-one else can go. This episode is about the experience we have in our mind, and the state of our mental health within the context of beer. If we're sick we go to a doctor. If we're injured, a physical therapist. When we want to perform better, we see a coach. Addressing our mental health and our mental fitness ought to be the same. Good beer may have little to do with this, but it's a great way to get the conversation started. We find great experiences at the intersection of craft and culture. These are the stories of us, of great food and the beer that brings it all together. For the Craft and Culture of Beer, this is episode 142 of Good Beer Matters with beer writer and mental health advocate, Emma Inch.

There's a contradiction at the heart of beer, drinking and pub culture. Sharing a drink with your mates, or even just with the people you only ever see down your local... is great for your mental health. Support, community, conversation and laughter are all good positive things. And yet... Alcohol is dangerous. Sadly it is that simple. It's too easy to drink to self-medicate or attempt to ease anxiety is a non-healthy way. All of which makes this episode about beer and mental health absolutely fascinating. Emma Inch is a highly regarded beer writer and critic... and also a mental health professional. She is about to launch a podcast called 'Same Again' which will explore this exact subject, so I wanted to talk to her about it and support the discussion she is trying to enable. As well as mental health, we discuss Emma's beer writing (she has written with some legends in the game, let's put it that way) and she has some cracking recommendations on beers to try from near and far. Plus, as an industry expert, Emma has some insightful thoughts on the current state of the UK beer scene. Get comfortable, grab a beer and enjoy listening to this one... To find out the latest about 'Same Again' and all of Emma Inch's other work and projects, follow her on Twitter (@fermentradio)

"Not everyone can connect to sports themselves, but a lot of people can connect to sports storytelling that revolves around the human condition". - Jack Allen (President of UNCUT Blacksburg)Aziz was joined by Jack Allen, Emma Inch, and Michaela McCarthy in talking about UNCUT Blacksburg. We discussed how UNCUT gives Virginia Tech students a platform to share their stories / passions off the field and showcase the human behind the uniform. We heard two stories, one from Emma and one from Michaela, about their experiences and challenges faced as VT student athletes.
In the final episode of season 6, the hosts examine the unique role of pub games in British pub history and how events such as a quiz night or skittles alley can help transform some of the quietest pub nights into a popular evening, bringing people together and breaking down social barriers. They chat to award-winning freelance writer, audio maker and podcast consultant Emma Inch, and former pub quiz master Jane Peyton, an award-winning writer, public speaker and drinks expert.

Producing and hosting a weekly local radio show likely isn't how most beer writers get their start—but that's exactly where Emma Inch's career in beer began. With a passion for rockabilly music, which she saw as an outlet from the stress of her day job as a mental health crisis worker, Emma went from hosting club nights to approaching her local radio station with a show idea. Then a few years later—as she began noticing a change in her local beer scene in Brighton, England—she pitched an idea for a new show, and in late 2015 Fermentation Beer and Brewing Radio began. Initially a live monthly radio show with a local focus on the beer scene in and around Brighton, Emma later decided to continue producing the show as a podcast instead. As she puts it, with most podcasts sought out rather than stumbled upon, as radio programs often are, this enabled her to not only broaden her geographical scope (from Brighton to the rest of Britain and beyond), but to narrow her focus and take a deeper dive with the stories she was telling. And in 2018, Emma's storytelling skills won her the U.K.'s highest accolade for a beer writer: the Michael Jackson Gold Tankard for Beer Writer of the Year. When I ask her to take us back to that moment, her memories are a bit fuzzy. Not from alcohol, but from the rather tough bout of sinusitis she was battling at the time. But when I ask her to reflect on how the win has impacted her career since, she rapturously reels off a list of the incredible opportunities it brought her way. We also discuss the impact of her win on the industry more broadly, and what it means to be a queer woman taking home the top award in a space still dominated by straight white men. And with Emma's recent election as Chair of the British Guild of Beer Writers, the organization behind the awards that recognized her work, she tells us how she's keen to bring further focus to issues of diversity, representation, and equity within the beer writing community. From looking forward to her newest role, we then take a look back at her longest-standing one. Alongside her current career as a drinks writer, audio maker, and podcast consultant, Emma is a part-time university lecturer in social work. We explore how that role—then and now—has influenced her perspective on the beer world, her approach to her work, and the stories she chooses to tell.

In a change to regular programming the guys sat in for Nihal on his Tuesday afternoon show. It's a coveted slot, covering some of the hardest-hitting topics and news stories in the world today. So, naturally, Elis and John jumped head first into some serious radio journalism by talking about non-alcoholic beer, Wales at the Euros (2016 AND 2021) and post-rock music. Is there anything they can't do?
The Moon Under Water is as much about pub mystery and desire as it is celebrating the drinks that we so enjoy, and this week's guest is a master of celebrating the beauty of pubs, ale and imbibing. It's podcaster and winner of the coveted British Beer Writer of the Year Award… Emma Inch!There aren't many people better at evoking the magic of pubs as Emma, and there probably aren't many better beer experts: what she doesn't know about beer isn't worth knowing (unless we're talking about secret recipes).She is so good at conjuring up romantic images of pubs gone by that this episode comes with a warning: after listening to this you might feel a sudden urge to run straight to your favourite pub and live there forever.Want to contact the landlord?

Lamb chops with raspberry beerby Susan Nowak WHEN we talk about beers having a fruity note we generally mean it’s one element in the overall flavour – such as citrus, or that hint of banana in a Bavarian Weisse. A beer made with fruit is a totally different proposition and, to my palate, far superior to a fruit wine; where the wine is generally too sweet and often syrupy, beer, with hops in its armoury, can balance the sweetness of the fruit and achieve quite a dry, sophisticated character that goes with main courses and desserts alike. Two of my favourites are raspberry and cherry and both are natural partners for lamb, which has a sweetness of its own – the raspberry is lighter and more summery while cherry beer is altogether darker and heavier in tone. Pictured is my very special bottle of cherry beer, Tamar Kriek, 7.3% ABV brewed by St Austell’s Brewery in Cornwall in the style of the ‘sour red beers of East Flanders’, then matured in oak casks, using cherries picked in the Tamar Valley. Obviously this was a limited edition but both raspberry and, especially, cherry beers are available in supermarkets. The new season’s lamb is now at its best, and a summer’s day the best time to enjoy it. Lamb chops with raspberry beer One medium thick lamb chop (or steak) per person; unsalted butter for frying; one small red onion finely chopped; one clove garlic, crushed; a sprig of fresh (or one tsp dried) rosemary; 300ml (half pint) raspberry beer; redcurrant jelly; one level dstsp plain flour; 300ml (half pint) stock (could use chicken cube); salt and black pepper. Melt butter gently in a frying pan and when it starts to bubble add the lamb chops or steaks; increase the heat and brown swiftly on both sides, then lower the heat again and add the onion and garlic. Fry gently until softened but not brown. Remove the lamb when it is cooked to your liking – just a few minutes for very rare, a few more for medium or about 10 minutes for well done but with just a hint of pink in the centre or it would be too dry. Rest the lamb chops somewhere warm. To make the gravy, pour the raspberry beer into a small pan and heat gently to simmering point; meanwhile pour off any excess fat – lamb chops can be very fatty – then stir the flour into the onions to create a smooth roux, add the rosemary, and stir in the beer little by little to achieve a fairly thin gravy. Add a level tbsp of redcurrant jelly, which gives a lovely sheen as well as a tangy flavour. Season to taste. Serve the chops on a pool of gravy, with small new potatoes and a green vegetable such as asparagus, peas or leeks sliced lengthways. Cheers – and bon appétit.
