Welcome to we are beer people, a podcast all about the many different people who help us enjoy beer.
Today we’re taking a leap from what is – if we’re honest – the perfectly stable ground beneath our feet and taking the risk and opportunity of the high seas.
In some ways that’s the journey that today’s guest has taken
I’m speaking with Sonja Mitchell, the Managing Director or Beer Admiral of Jump Ship Brewing, an alcohol-free beer brand that started when Sonja – an avid sailor - had had enough of low alcohol beers not coming close to the Scottish beers she enjoyed.
And so Sonja quite literally jumped ship from her day job to brew her own
And after much work and many brews, their lager, Yardarm, achieved best no and low alcohol lager in the World Beer Awards.
Fast forward to today and Jump Ship’s a small crew of shipmates with a brewery under construction in Midlothian with its sights set on making the world a little better along the way.
