Heritage Drinks of Myanmar, with brewer & author Luke Corbin

Beer is a Conversation is our weekly sit down with some of the people who make the beer industry the interesting and dynamic thing that it is and through these conversations we dig a little deeper into the stories behind the business of beer and brewing. This week we chat with Luke Corbin who is brewing with Myanmar’s first modern brewery, Burbrit Brewery. This conversation came out of a chance meeting at the recent SEA Brew conference in Bangkok. Luke is a home brewer - one of the founders of Melbourne’s Merri Mashers homebrew club. He’s also a PhD candidate in Anthropology at the College of Asia &amp; the Pacific, Australian National University. He came to be in Myanmar as part of his doctoral fieldwork and ended up working for the country’s first modern brewery. This is a fascinating chat about beer, brewing and the drinking culture in a very exotic location. Radio Brews News is proudly presented by Cryer Malt. With over 25 years in the field, Cryer Malt has been bringing you the world’s best local and imported malts. Your premium brewing partner and proud supporters of Brews News.
