Jumping on the band(bass)wagon and honestly it’s really quite tasty. Me and four really, really old dudes drinking it in silence in a tiny carpeted pub in a Welsh village, just like the prophecy foretold

Went to Leipzig for work and now addicted to Gose. Trains home meant I could pretend I went to a gym couriering a large selection of bottles. Working through them still. Love that they’re not too puckering from this part of the world 🍻 and look at that top hat! He knows what he’s doing.

I’ll say it again. The atmosphere at Tottenham Hotspur stadium has never been ruined by the presence of “tourists” or Asian fans. It is your own fault for allowing that to impede on your experience. Let your nuts hang & make it a fortress or shut the fuck up. Stop using that EXCUSE to be racist.

Been an inspiring journey and I’m so pleased to have had the opportunity to get my work out there. Grateful and energised! (uncharacteristically earnest post, deal with it)
It was so great to work with Joey from @beerinthecity.bsky.social as part of the @britbeerwriters.bsky.social mentorship scheme and the end result to be this wonderful investigative yet story-rich piece of writing. Enjoy!
Thai independent brewing has had a difficult start, mainly thanks to prohibitive laws. That never stopped Chit.

Right I’ve followed a bunch of you who seem sensible. Follow back and drop me some accounts to follow who are even more sensible. People who won’t try to claim that porter and stout are different, that kind of thing.
