39. Kevin Wood - Adventurer and Brewer, Darling
Co-founder and former owner of Darling Brew, Kevin Wood sat down to chat with me about how his brewing journey started. It's a canned history of the early days of the craft beer industry that he navigated with his wife and co-founder Philippa Wood. Darling Brew shot to prominence in the industry back when men were men and beer was nervous. He left the game in the tumult of Covid, and now runs a smokehouse and adventure centre called 'Living Colour' outside his home town of Darling in the Western Cape. For fans of his approach to making beer, there's a little brewing project brewing on the road between Darling and Yzerfontein.
Living Colour, Darling
