Forty people showed up last night to a northern New York suburb for a paid event to learn about cask beer. I think that’s good news. Great job, Ambleside Pub!

Your annual reminder that “Blue Monday” is a complete fiction invented by a company that wanted to sell you more holidays.
Enjoy January! It’s quiet and cosy and time for semi-hibernation, reflection and being kind to yourself!

Of course you can sit at our pub table (terms and conditions apply)
British people can be oddly reluctant to share pub tables. Maybe it’s time to get over that and get better at asking “Are these seats free?”

We’ve made it to 1,000 brews!
The photo here is from the Elusive archives from back in August 2022 when we’d reached our 500th brew (this is Rick adding some local honey to an imperial stout).
So…what beer style do you think #1000 will be?
