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

Overview

[http://www.thebrewingnetwork.com The Brewing Network] (TheBN) features internet-based live radio shows focusing on homebrewing and general beer interest. TheBN strives to obtain guest appearances from well known (and well respected) figures in both the homebrewing and Craft Brewing world, as well as experts in non-beer related homebrewing, such as cider, mead and wine making.

During the live format "The Sunday Session", live questions submitted by either phone, live chat or email are fielded by the guests and the hosts. Sometimes answers also come from other listeners. But in the end, helpful information is gleaned from the several hour long show, as well as plenty of laughs. As always, the motto is to "Relax, Don't Worry, Have A Homebrew." (Charlie Papazian)

Besides the Sunday Session, the Brewing Network produces "The Jamil Show," in which award-winning homebrewers Jamil Zainasheff and Jon Plise discuss one specific beer style in detail on each show, "Lunch Meet," featuring Justin and JP, and "Brew Strong," featuring Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer.
