Tomorrow is the @britbeerwriters.bsky.social awards and I wish everyone nominated good luck! I have the absolute privilege as a previous gold winner to say winning prizes isn’t a gauge of how your work resonates - waking up every day and doing something creative is the real prize!

Last beer on the European mainland after 10 days travelling through Prague, Nuremberg, Bamberg and Brussels - from the lagerlands to the terroir of Tripel - a fascinating study trip

It might be a tourist magnet but there is something about Poechenellerkelder that I really like - the puppets hanging there like memories of fairy tales read in childhood and a pretty solid beer list though it was too early in the day to start on the Christmas beers, maybe tomorrow before I leave

10 of the best British lagers to try (now that we’re finally brewing it better)

Now that Rogue has apparently shed its mortal coil, I have to do another brewery obit. (Ugh!) Given Rogue’s reputation today, one may imagine its legacy is merely surviving. In fact, it was a hugely influential brewer, and at one time its beers were considered groundbreaking.
