Christmas beers are coming!

Two scrumptious pastry stouts from none other than Yonder

Irish Cream Profiteroles 8%

Cinnamon Bun Spiced Mocha 6%

In this day and age, everyone should feel safe, welcomed, and treated equally. It's very sad that certain people can ruin what should be a great experience. I'm happy to have helped @craftbeerpinup.bsky.social to experience what a beer festival should be.

I've just published my first article on something that I'm very passionate about.

It highlights the dominance global corporations have over UK pubs, controlling the beer market through beer ties.

A perfect coffee break read ☕
