I spied some new ones the other night!!!
We've recently been thinking that we should level up our snack game, so we did!

Some serious crisps and nibbles from some brilliant makers of snacks including Superbon, Soffle's Chip and @currysmugglers.bsky.social!

We hope you enjoy them, more to come...

Good old listen this...

Despite being present in the room for the talk @salfordbeerfest.bsky.social I was slightly too busy to be able to hear all of the panel discussion.

Oh and the @stfermentations.bsky.social Wild BA Brown was quite frankly delicious. I made sure I had a snifter of that!

This was a fabulous surprise @salfordbeerfest.bsky.social the other week; a real eye opener even to those that might not normally gravitate towards Flanders style on the sour beer spectrum.
Wild BA Brown

Starting life as a classic, Brown Ale with citrus US hops is transformed after 12 months in oak with Belgian yeast.

The result? Full-bodied, silky smooth, with a perfect marriage of fruity funk, orange/clementine, and a complex Flanders-type balsamic note.

Feeling a bit peckish so I thought it the perfect little @seanayling.bsky.social style brekko stack...
November 16, 2025 at 11:00 AM
On the list...
If you like us like your beer just a little bit funky then we have something for you from @scatterlings.bsky.social.

🍺 Meadow Lane - 5%

A blend of two aged wort batches, lightly dry hopped with UK grown Akoya & Goldings hops. Maturated in French Oak.

This can only mean one thing...

I'm cutting out a whole bunch of laminated keg identifiers for #ISBFX again. As ever some will absolutely be slightly more neat than others, at this point I've stopped doing anything like quality control.

Haem is without a doubt a really, really easy drinking delight. I'd expect no less from @elusivebrewing.com though...

🍺 Oregon Trail - 5.8%
