What’s it like heading up production of the UK’s best-selling cask beer?

Producing in excess of 1 million pints each week, coupled with a host of other beers, is no small feat.

Alongside that, you’re managing a team of some 32 brewers to ensure your whole operation goes smoothly.

It would be enough to keep most people up at night.

But thankfully for Sharp’s Brewery in Rock, Cornwall, their head brewer Aaron McClure takes it all in his stride.

In this podcast, we speak to Aaron about becoming head brewer of Sharp’s aged 30, his commitment to quality and consistency, navigating a pandemic and why his team are all-important when it comes to creating great beer.
