On Radio Brews News the Brews News editorial team discuss the beer news of the week.

This week Pete, James and Matt discuss:

• 49 new breweries in 2017 and how the list was calculated.
• Are local breweries killing local bars?
• Watchdog clears Angry Cock cider
• Lion confirms MOCU closure
• It’s a good beer, Brent is a really good lesson

And much, much more.

And finally, don’t forget we will be counting down the last two hours of the GABS Hottest 100 live on Mixlr. You can either download the Mixlr app to listen on the go or listen and join the chatroom here or here.
