Ep. 275 - [Cambodia] The Dynamics of the Cambodian Beer Industry with Edwin Yang, Brewmaster and Supply Chain Manager at Vattanac Brewery

Today we’re interviewing Edwin Yang, brewmaster and supply chain manager for Vattanac, a brewery in Cambodia!

This interview isn’t about mental trauma or how the world is about to end, let’s have a refresher, or a refreshment and learn about the wonderful world of beer!

Edwin is a world traveler and has honed his brewery skills by learning other countries’ skillset and cultures Sound familiar? He’s a Singaporean native but has been all over the world from the United States, to Germany, to Hong Kong, improving his skill set in the world of beer.

Edwin gives us a snapshot of Cambodia’s growing ecosystem and the wild west competitive atmosphere in the beer industry over here.

He also goes through the process of brewing three types of beer and also some cool tricks on how to market beer. Did you know if you crack open Cambodian beer, you have a chance to win a prize? Just look under the tab, and you might win a beer or a bike?

My personal favorite part of this interview is that we drink three beers live on air! And Edwin does a phenomenal job going through the experience of tasting beer.
