"I'm a big believer that times waits for no one." If you've come to know Dangerous Ales [https://craftypint.com/brewery/536/dangerous-ales] through their beers, it's most likely via their banging, Knappstein Reserve-esque Crispy Boi lager [https://craftypint.com/news/3653/dangerous-ales-five-years-in-five-beers#:~:text=Crispy%20Boi%20one%20started%20off%20as%20being%20called%20house%20lager] or one of the many hazy IPAs that have impressed the country's beer judges too.

And it's there we caught up with Damo inside the brewery where he's brewed every drop of beer while still popping up on the pass in the kitchen. As you can imagine when someone's led such a life, it's a broad-ranging episode that takes in flavour and fermentation, chasing waves and perfection, exploring new techniques and terpenes, and plenty more besides.
