This week we talk Fat Yaks, Big Helga’s and Barking Ducks as we speak with Jamie Fox who was CUB’s Marketing Manager for craft a decade ago as Australia’s dominant brewer struggled to make sense of the emerging craft scene.

It was fun to record some of his reflections on these times, and we hope you’ll enjoy the origin stories of some of the big – and defunct – beers from Matilda Bay.
