All Indie, Always Innovating – Seeker Brewing

"We just like making full-flavoured, unapologetic, big beers." There's nothing in the Australian beer world quite like Seeker Brewing [https://craftypint.com/brewery/715/seeker-brewing]. The Wollongong operation was founded by identical twins Jeff and Curtis Argent, our guests on this week's show, alongside mate Ben Boorer [https://craftypint.com/news/3252/chronically-crafty-managing-health-in-the-beer-industry]. Prior to running a brewery together, the brothers were in a band together, only denied their dreams of touring overseas by the pandemic. While their no-holding-back approach to brewing – whether that's adding more hops to a beer or ramping up the ABV – isn't unique, they've found new ways to approach it, not least in their Art of Flight series [https://craftypint.com/news/3522/seeker-take-flight-with-tiny-tins] featuring big beers in small cans. To find out more about one of the most joyous success stories of recent years, the twins joined us from their brewery to reflect on working (and sometimes living) together in Pirra and Seeker, the pleasure they take in watching a brewery full of people enjoying live music – from flamenco and salsa to rock and reggae, the plans they're currently hatching, and why they love working with others. There's plenty to discuss ahead of the main interview too: our Secret Sales Rep article on the death of relationships [https://craftypint.com/news/3925/the-secret-sales-rep-the-death-of-relationships], Venom's takeover [https://craftypint.com/news/3924/venom-to-open-taproom-at-former-mrs-parmas-in-melbourne] of the former Mrs Parma's site in Melbourne's CBD, Bad Shepherd's Ten Lessons From Ten Years [https://craftypint.com/news/3927/bad-shepherd-ten-lessons-from-ten-years], an inspiring collaboration [https://craftypint.com/news/3928/pillars-of-society-froths-all-australian-fundraiser-for-veterans] between veterans in WA, and our upcoming festive feast, Crafty Cheer! [https://craftypint.com/event/13873/crafty-cheer-a-festive-feast] We're always keen for feedback on the show, which you can provide here [https://craftypint.com/form_builder/view/a684eceee76fc522773286a895bc8436/the-crafty-pint-podcast-survey-2025-part-1], as well as nominations in our Have You Done A Rallings?
