🇬🇧 🙌🏻🇪🇺

Spring is upon us, it's time for the pub garden - and we're speeding into festival season! ☀️😁

Got your tickets yet for Maidenhead Craft Beer Festival? www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/maidenhead... - in the next week we'll be announcing the first few breweries we'll be inviting to pour, watch this space! 👈🏻

Well here we are, skip this if it’s boring!! My 2024 breweries ranked by total number (not unique) check ins, any volume variety (can, draft etc). I’ve been running this since 2015 and use my Untappd stats as the source.

Watch out where the huskies go and don’t you eat that…

Isn’t that a @sirencraftbrew.bsky.social beer on the Last Leg on NYE?

Happy Saturday everyone! #untappd #whyalwaysonasaturday

In light of recent news of Guinness demand outstripping production, here is the best ever Guinness ad ever made

@ahoppyplace.bsky.social advent beer #5 is from the absolute legends which are @elusivebrewing.com. @tabamatu.bsky.social has once again proven why he is the undisputed king of WC style IPAs. Delicious and was a great compliment to our pie chips and gravy dinner!

Late update. Beer #3 from @ahoppyplace.bsky.social was @durationbeer.bsky.social’s Tmave black Czech lager. A perfect midweek winter beer. Really enjoyed meeting Miranda this year at Amity beer festival and I am glad this reminded me of how good their beers are!

Genuinely stunning beer: fresh, generous helping of hops, dry, delicate and bitter. @ahoppyplace.bsky.social advent #2 in collab with @sirencraftbrew.bsky.social and @indierabble.bsky.social ‘Still Spinning’. Take a bow!

Beer #1 from @ahoppyplace.bsky.social advent calendar is absolutely brilliant - a hot stout by Omnipollo. Careful monitoring required to ensure temperatures were within threshold!

The annual Year in Beer is nearly upon us and I like to get a sneak peak ahead of the full year stats to see where I stand in terms of my Top 10 breweries & total check ins (not unique). I’m including 2023 here and some commentary if you’ve got naff all else to read 😀

Tongue in cheek headline editorial blooper from @theguardian.com, enjoyed it a lot 😀

Waiting for #Untappd to join so I can start complaining on @bsky.app about their regular Saturday night outages.
