Friends!! Join me Dec 7th from 4pm at @lmulligangrocer for PORTER WARS- book talk and beer tasting!!

We will be launching my collaboration brew with @beerfoodtravel.bsky.social & @troublebrewing.ie - two porters inspired by my chapter Porter Wars from Filthy Queens: A History of Beer in Ireland
A promotional flyer on a wood-textured background with hops and beer pints for an event titled “PORTER WARS – Book Talk and Beer Tasting.” At the top, white text reads: “4pm Sunday, December 7th.” Below, large bold white text states “PORTER WARS,” with smaller text underneath reading “BOOK TALK AND BEER TASTING.” Text reads: “Join Dr Christina Wade for a talk on Irish beer in the 18th century. Featuring porters inspired by her book, Filthy Queens: A History of Beer in Ireland Nine Bean Rows Books.” “A collab by Trouble Brewing × Dr Christina Wade × Liam K. of Irish Beer History.” Below this are two Trouble Brewing beer label graphics. One for an English Porter called The Fox and the other an Irish Porter called Fire & Labour At the bottom: “AT L. MULLIGAN GROCER.”

All the Nelsonny goodness frm this 3-way (4including Manchester museum) collab -very NEIPA but low carbonation making it seek like a cask ale. A hint of the oniony vegetation creeping in but overall very moreish

My @rosscider.bsky.social subscriber box came yesterday and what better bottle to open first than the 2023 raison d'etre! Quite sharp&a little sulphorous on the nose its relatively gentle to taste with a good balance of tanin&acidity with a subtle islay peatsmoke following on, a wisp of carbonation

Saddened to hear of the passing of Martyn Cornell @thezythophile.bsky.social and on the eve of the launch of the tome that is the culmination of decades of painstaking research and diligent debunking on the history of porter and stout. A scholar and a gentleman, cheers mate

This has all the hallmarks of a future timeless classic, at once old school and forward facing, hedgerow hops and dusty grain sack with a bracingly bitter attack, biscuit malt mid-section and a spicy, dry and moreish finish
