Episode #30: Link Up | Rouge River Brewery with Dane Glyn-Williams

Aug 30, 2023

Week 2 of Link Up's Series 6 brings us to Markham, ON with Rouge River! Dane Glyn-Williams joined Cee and Tiff to chat about how their taproom is so welcoming to the diverse community around them, how they've built a strong relationship with the Markham locals, why the small things matter, how their festivals and food vendors contribute to introducing new people to beer, and how they cater to non-beer drinkers to bring them into the taproom. They cracked Rouge River's Link Up West Coast Pilsner with Centennial and Simcoe hops, a crisp, floral, tropical summer crusher. Cheers!

 

About the Link Up season:

We're back with a brand new season of BAOS Podcast, and this one is something very special and very close to us. We'll be focusing this entire season on Link Up, a non-profit started by the good folks behind Microbrasserie 5e Baron in Aylmer, QC and Tiffany and Cee here at BAOS and High Season Co. Our aim with this program is to help BIPOC from underrepresented communities learn about and enter the craft beer industry in essentially any area they wish - from a brewing apprentice to taking the Cicerone course for front-of-house opportunities, from hop farming to the yeast lab, from beer media to design and photography, we're here to help diversify an industry that is in dire need of it.
