Henderson’s Relish and Worcester Sauce will be appearing in the form of crisps as they head to battle in an “Easter special” episode of Jimbo Wilmshurst’s podcast, Ale & Audio.

Jimbo, who lives in Chapeltown, set up the weekly music and chat podcast in November 2020 to connect owners of home bars and pub sheds in the UK, and talk about all things craft beer.
