I make beer for a living and for fun. Middle aged ramblings on beer and domestic nonsense. I also grow stuff and keep chickens. Proud member of the Guardian-reading, tofu-eating Wokerati. With a side order of Huddersfield Town.
And here’s the end result.
Served with pan-fried leftover mash, Mrs S’ sauerkraut and a glass of @uddersorchardcider.bsky.social cider.

Anything under six miles at an average 3.5mph and I don’t feel as if I’ve had a proper leg-stretcher.

The ones on the left are out of bounds, but I’ve still got plenty of the more recent ones to play with. Gonna go for a 2023. Opus, Archer and CF185 apparently.

I’m terrible for it. I can’t just enjoy something without worrying about what’s going to come along and fuck it up 😂

Oh, and there’s no guarantee that they’ll all look as nice as this one, but I did my best.
