Finally had a Boddies @topshambrewery.bsky.social nice dry finish some bittersweetness, last time had it was at a Crouch End pub late 80s, loved all of my 6 pints but can’t compare as I’m not an archaeological beer drinker, palate cleanser of a 6.8% hazy IPA afterwards which was very uplifting

Got to ask some publicans about this today. Yet another vote for "It's been surprisingly mad." Also, there's a shortage of cask ale because so many breweries paused brewing on the assumption that January would be dead.
Publicans (and taproomicans): has January been as quiet/busy as you expected? More so? Less so? You can DM if you like. We're after data.
