Join me as I sit down with Oscar McMahon, the multifaceted skateboarder, musician, entrepreneur, and frontman of the Hell City Glamours rock band. Oscar takes us through his vibrant journey from the streets of Newtown to co-founding Young Henrys, an innovative brand that's redefining the beer industry. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at how the brand's philosophy is deeply intertwined with artistic passion, thanks to figures like artist Sindy Sinn whose work has become emblematic of Young Henrys creative spirit.
Discover the secret sauce behind building a community-driven brand that prioritises authentic connections over geographic boundaries. Oscar opens up about the principles of like-mindedness, the importance of supporting live music and cultural spaces, and the challenges of maintaining independence in an ever-competitive market. We delve into the significance of creating real-life experiences in a post-COVID world and the brand's unwavering commitment to serving its people. Whether you're a budding entrepreneur or simply a lover of vibrant community life, this conversation offers invaluable insights on balancing creativity with business sustainability.
Lastly, get ready to be inspired by innovative practices that align creativity with sustainability. We explore Young Henrys groundbreaking use of microalgae in brewing, a method that not only reduces carbon emissions but also fosters a sustainable relationship between brewing and agriculture. As Oscar shares stories from both his personal and professional life, you’ll learn about the delicate balance between passion and ethics, and why following your gut can be a game-changer. Don't miss this treasure trove of stories, insights, and inspiration that promises to ignite your creative spark and broaden your perspective on community and business.
Enjoy,
Shan
