Why Carl Marshall thinks a well kept pint of Hobgoblin and clean toilets are the hallmark of a good taproom.
Designating himself as driver, he taxied a group of friends around a variety of brewery tap rooms - everything from craft upstairs Wild Weather and Siren Craft, to the well-established West Berkshire Brewery and Wytchwood, famous for their beer Hobgoblin - allowing them to experience the full pallet of offerings from a range of breweries, all heralding different styles. In this episode, we ask Carl what he took from the experience and talk all about how taprooms now are a must for breweries to succeed.
