Really enjoyed this half of Black Shuck stout from @bridscrossbrew.bsky.social this lunchtime from the hop emporium at Warrington market. They said it was the first from you and I said they must get the wcipa in. Absolutely delicious

A really nice new food shop in Letchworth. Amazing section of fruit and veg from all over the world. I'm going to take a guess as to what @beernouveau.co.uk will choose as his beer of choice from the chiller.... 😀🍻

Though reading it again, I think they are still just saying thanks, patting me on the head and hoping that'll be enough to get it to die down

I got some Geterbrewed all grain kits last week and tucked this fairly standard best bitter into the fermenter yesterday. Other than a weird wobble about middle of today the yeast is chugging away nicely 😀🍻

I'm really liking my 9 day fortnight working pattern... Seems to work well with homebrew days 😀🍻 my other half is not at all sure 🤣

Well, that went relatively smoothly. 13 litres now fermenting away happily 😀🍻

Well it's been too long. And I'm not working today and it's too horrible and icy too contemplate much else... So it's homebrew day 😀. A Kolsch this time 🍻

Cheers and happy Friday everyone. It's a best bitter but I'm pretty sure it's not from Ossett Brewery (unless they brew the best bitter for the hop emporium in Warrington market...)

It's nice though. And it's helping me deal with the trauma that is the Christmas shopping I need to do 🤣🍻

Inspired by the wonderful piece by Rachel Hendry published by @pelliclemag.bsky.social mid week, I've stopped in the Peveril of the Peak to see if they had Landlord on. They do, and it's lovely 😀🍺. Thanks for inspiring me to seek it out
