Hello & welcome back to Breaking Bread, this week Liam & Carl are joined by brothers Harry & Ollie. We talk all about how Ollie started one of the best craft breweries in the country & how Harry used his science background to create awesome pizza.

Digbrew

Ollie started brewing beer as a hobby from his studio, while studying art at uni. His hobby soon became his passion, and not long out of uni, Ollie began looking for a home for his new craft brewery.

Eventually, he decided to set up his brewery in an old gun factory in Digbeth Birmingham. The brewery would have a taproom to serve the beer he brewed in an upscale to his old art studio. Digbrew was one of the first waves of craft breweries to open in Birmingham and has established itself as one of the best.

When the Digbrew taproom opened the only food they served was pie. Before long Ollie made the decision to switch to pizza, and his brother Harry joined. Baking is often referred to as a sweet science, and pizza bases are no different. Fortunately, Harry was well versed in bringing scientific grounding to his passion for cooking.
