The Brewing Network is an Internet radio station, dedicated to homebrewing and craft beer.

Overview

The Brewing Network produces internet-based live radio shows focusing on homebrewing and general craft beer interest, which are subsequently made available as Podcasts. The BN frequently features interviews with well-known (and well-respected) figures in both the homebrewing and craft brewing world, as well as experts in cider, mead and wine making.

The network's original show, The Sunday Session, follows a "beer entertainment" philosophy that blends beer information and interviews with humorous stories from the brewcasters' personal lives. Live questions submitted by either phone, live chat or email are fielded by the guests and the hosts. It has since moved to Mondays, and now airs three Mondays per month at 6 pm PST.

In 2014, The Brewing Network studios was relocated to The Hop Grenade Taproom & Bottleshop in downtown Concord, California.
