Beer is a Conversation: Bill Savage

This week on Beer is a Conversation we meet Bill Savage from Goose Island.

Bill came to brewing having taught himself to make mead while studying classical language and literature at college. He went on to make wine and mead professionally, before joining Goose Island in 2013. He is now Lead Brewer in the Goose Island Barrel Aging Program.

This conversation coincides with the launch of Goose Island’s Sour Sisters range in Australia and we speak with Bill about Goose Island’s barrel program, the growing popularity of barrel-aged beers and the challenges of scaling up esoteric beer production to meet global demand.

The Goose Island Sour Sisters beers are available from select Dan Murphy’s and First Choice Stores – and also from BoozeBud for under $30 a bottle.
