Radio Brews News

This week we catch with one of our favourite interviewees, Dr Tim Cooper. Quite apart from being the Managing Director of the 159-year-old Coopers Brewery, Tim is one of those rare interviews that actually engages with the premise of a question and tries to actually provide an answer. Believe us when we say that is quite a novelty in news interviewing. For the listener, it means you will get much more out of a conversation with Tim Cooper, than you might expect. In this episode we discuss Coopers 2021 results and hear whether Tim thinks Coopers was too slow in moving to cans, how Coopers can manage to stay relevant to new generations of beer drinkers, and also would Coopers ever consider buying a craft brewer. Spoiler alert, the answer is "yes, but..." As you’ll hear, this conversation went over time and even then there were at least half a dozen threads to the conversation that I would have loved to pursue, but just couldn’t for time. Even so, there is plenty that we do discuss. Our partners Radio Brews
