This may be the hill I'll die on, but it's once again time to remind the beer world that "Oktoberfest, my culture is not a costume" is valid. Don't be disrespectful - don't be a dick.

I know we’re not supposed to judge, but I am me and I judge the country /region by how they brew a Pilsner style beer. So: 1. Kudos for calling it a Pils - you have my heart @brasseriemeteor.bsky.social - 2. this is bangin’!! and 3. Sorry for not writing this in French #soz @chimprocket.bsky.social

Going past the train station and smelling the steam engines before actually seeing the big puffy plumes is definitely a great start to my Friday 🚂

Rioja Blanco is sooo damn underrated - drink more Viura - it’s amazing

I was prepared for something great when I opened @tomoliverscider.bsky.social Coppy 2022 & 2023, but what greeting me in the glass is beyond Perry Shangri-La! Tom Oliver I salute you (I most definitely have to get @chimprocket.bsky.social in a car and
come and see the great old tree for myself) 🍐

I’m wearing a new pair of sneakers and not one person has asked how fast I can run in them… being an adult sucks sometimes 🥺☹️

You'd think I'd have had enough of beer after judging the nation's best brew at BeerX (yes, it is a tough life, thoughts and prayers etc), but I honestly cant' wait to enjoy some local bevvies with @chimprocket.bsky.social at @sirencraftbrew.bsky.social 12th Brewery Party tomorrow – see you there? 🍻

Last time I was in Liverpool on a beer mission I was carrying a copy of Dante’s Inferno (didn’t bother with Purgatorio and Paradiso for some reason), a bike light and a woolly hat. Will I top this collection of haphazardness this time around @chimprocket.bsky.social ?!

This afternoon I purposely drank a light struck beer I kept in the February sunshine for three days. Certainly not amazing, definitely not great, just a bit meh. Don’t get me wrong, the beer was faulty, but not undrinkable. Interesting to say the least 🍺
