Some things don't need to change
We put over 17 tonnes of fresh New World #hops into every IPA we brew!

I, for one, am watching fat Japanese men slap each other this evening

We've been saying to anyone who'll listen that when Govt raises taxes too much people will find ways to evade or avoid paying them.

It's not just me then.

What I want to know is what 3FA will look like once 2FA is no longer secure enough?
Booked a hotel tomorrow and they’re emailing to say I need to download their special app to check in online. No. In what way does this benefit me? Why is everything moving in this direction? What is the actual point? How is it better than me arriving at the hotel and speaking to a real person?

That time of day when the haulier hasn't yet arrived and you start to wonder if they're going to? Yeah that's now

There should be a special place in hell for brewers who attach unnecessary stickers to the sides of ecasks

I don't think I could ever get bored of the Sussex countryside

Packaging this on Monday ....

Having to scrounge pallets so we can ship out beer wasn't something I ever thought I'd have to do.

Part way through work today we lost part of our 3phase supply. UKPowerNetwork have been brilliant in identifying and resolving the problem for us.

I guess we'll actually have to make this now ...

Currently watching the Dimbleby Lecture ... nothing but respect and awe for Gareth Southgate

Long long day today. Haven't done a double shift for a while. So far haven't made any mistakes (that I'm aware of) ....

On my fourth mug of tea already this morning

Waiting for spring to start so we can get back to brewing dark beers ...

At the start of 2024 we set ourselves a sales target and a "fantasy" sales target and have exceeded both.

Have already set targets for 2025 which are now looking incredibly achievable and possibly slightly pessimistic ....

We might have been persuaded into selling a lot of casks today

I've just noticed that our Farams calendar has a mistake! The week numbers are out by 1 from June/July onwards.

Yes this is an admission it's taken me 6 months to spot this error 😱

You just don't see examples of selfless public service like this as often these days ....
As an older member of my Xmas do for my dayjob, I now find myself taking drinks from intoxicated members of my team and drinking them without them noticing. These are the Xmas Do folks who never normally drink and don't want to say "no".

I'm a tiddled hero. What fun, 😍

Unexpectedly busy day. Time for a celebratory beverage.

Once again I find myself "working" late into the evening

Set up a couple of finings tests yesterday and the results this morning are good. The pale one is the collab we brewed with @boozertron.bsky.social which is 2002 in a glass

My evening so far .... couple of beers in a couple of pubs and random conversations. Now engaging with local takeaway food
