Heading to the Brewers Congress hosted by Brewers Journal in London...

We've been invited to be part of a discussion panel Masterclass focusing on the relationship between retail and the brewing industry.

Say hi if you're attending today!

There is an odds on chance it'll probably be in a brewery rather than the fruit and veg aisle of Sainsbury's!!!

Social media seems to have much less of an appeal to me recently; maybe I'm just slightly more busy or I'm just generally a bit less inclined to engage in the current global political climate but....

Have I missed owt?!?

Well obviously... Who doesn't want the second most desirable beer style in their drinking vessel of choice?!? 🤔

The Zoom screen that is... Oregon Trail is fantastic and also shares initials with a certain other lesser seen beer from the house of Thorn ridge!

Brewed in collaboration with The Kernel as part of their 15th birthday celebration.

A golden IPA with Chevalier malt at its heart giving a fresh bread & marmalade backbone then resinous, pine & citrus candies.

An old school beer from two kraft pioneers.

I'm reasonably sure some of these might be coming home with me tonight...

Time for a Saturday evening livener, and a small yet focussed dab or two of cheese.

@scatterlings.bsky.social continue to wow with their mixed ferm focussed saison loveliness. Vidal is an especially good match with this goats milk gorgonzola.

Beer picked up from @stirchleywines.bsky.social...
