In Praise of the Beer Town — in my occasional blog for the folks at @geterbrewed.bsky.social I’ve written about what makes a great town beer scene, and for the haters I’ve included my own personal top 10. www.geterbrewed.com/blog/2025/11...

Just posted a little @pelliclemag.com update via Patreon for our subscribers, including info on our new sponsor, new editorial hire, and full details of our NAGBW awards wins. Pals of Pellicle can read it here: www.patreon.com/posts/pellic...

For @geterbrewed.bsky.social I have reflected on the Beer Orders of 1989, and how all the attempts to break up the Big Six really did is create another Big Six, except now none are based in the UK. Read it here: www.geterbrewed.com/blog/2025/07...

I have been writing again for my pals at @geterbrewed.bsky.social. Here's a pragmatic take on the nature of the various beer awards out there, and their value. www.geterbrewed.com/blog/2025/07...

Ok folks I’m back at work so let’s talk shop a while. After a bit of a wobbly summer at @pelliclemag.com we’re back on track, with a new sponsor, @geterbrewed.bsky.social and we’ve immediately reinvested that support by recruiting @clairembullen.bsky.social as associate editor.

We have some great news to share. @geterbrewed.bsky.social, long-time Pro-Patreon supporters, have come on board as Pellicle's main sponsor 🎉 AND, as if that wasn't exciting enough, we would love you to welcome @clairembullen.bsky.social to the family as we expand into a team of four once more!

Hey, @pelliclemag.com has two big bits of news and you know what there's no time like the present to tell you. We have a new headline sponsor, and I am delighted to say its the lovely people from @geterbrewed.bsky.social. With their support we'll be able to keep the mag going into 2026 and beyond.

Were there too many breweries after all? In the first part of a broader look at the state of independent brewing in the UK, I've written a piece for @geterbrewed.bsky.social that looks at if the UK beer industry has his its saturation point. Read it here: www.geterbrewed.com/blog/2025/05...

Let’s have a bit for fun. For my monthly blog on Get ‘Er Brewed I’ve ranked my top 10 beer cities in the U.K. Number one will SHOCK YOU. www.geterbrewed.com/blog/2024/11...
