I always think Kernel are rightly lauded for their pale hoppy beers, but they are genuinely exceptional at malt forward beer styles. And these are just superb. #BskyBeer

It's pretty good luck to have a local that's a 1 minute walk away and does very decent pints of cask for £3.40 😋 #BskyBeer

Not had these for a long time and they are still very good beers indeed tbf. Wyoming is almost as tasty as I remember it being when I last tried it in ye olden days* of craft beer. *7-8 years ago #BskyBeer

Not had @elusivebrewing.com Oregon Trail on draught for a long time. So had to get a pint. Very lovely indeed 🙂 #BskyBeer

Good to see Stan still has a certain level of fame. bsky.app/profile/sean...

Lovely evening @b33r-at-33.bsky.social last night. Stein of Octoberfest Paulaner and pizza from Bove's out the back (Stan had a bit of crust). Very lucky to have this place as our local 😀 #BskyBeer

Inspired by a recent @tigger2017.bsky.social tweet decided to order some Buxton beers. Remember being blown away by Wyoming, King Slayer etc. in the olden days of craft beer so looking forward to these 😃 (and the BA saisons and triple..) And £60 for the lot with free delivery 🥳 #BskyBeer

When someone knows there are dog treats behind the bar. #BskyBeer

Nice pint of American pale from @blackedgebeers.bsky.social at their tap. Bonus Stan photo bomb* *dog treats were out of shot on the left 👀 #BskyBeer

Years ago I used to be a bit sniffy about Bank Top beers. Maybe I'd heard a bit of talk about them being very trad & bland. But this dark mild is very good. And so are a fair few of their pale beers. And in a world of inflation, pints at £3.40 doesn't hurt 😅 #BskyBeer

Stan was tired. So an impromptu Aldi carry cot was improvised.

Up that there Rivington brewery. #BskyBeer

Very nice overdue day out in Preston yesterday. Just loads of good places with very good beer selections. #BskyBeer

I think someone's trying to tell me something...

It's just about acceptable when it's free at a wedding.

Nice stop off at Newbarns brewery tap in Leith yesterday. Could've easily stayed for more than one but had places to be/things to do/other bars to visit etc. #BskyBeer

Might be here a while tbh.

Phwoar.

First-time stop off at Lost in Leith. Very nice place as expected, great tap list, and the GF Leith Juice is a pretty good livener to start with. #BskyBeer

A wander up a very windy Conic hill overlooking Loch Lomond today. And now a lovely Belgian Single from the appropriately iconic @stfermentations.bsky.social #BskyBeer

Lovely long day on the Scottish coast along the Firth of Clyde. So a very nice amber lager from local @stfermentations.bsky.social & my hometown brewery Rivington seems appropriate 😋 #BskyBeer

Very nice to see @jamesksowerby.bsky.social tonight. Impromptu catch up but was a most pleasant couple of hours.

Very nice hour or two @thebrewerybar.bsky.social drinking a really good cask 5% NZ pale, and can't argue with £3.50 a pint on a Sunday evening 🍻 #BskyBeer

Uh, oh.

Colourful buildings, coffee, a cathedral, and a bit of crafty beer in Poznan 🍻

Very nice wander around Wroclaw yesterday. It is well worth a visit 👌

A bit of sunshine-infused session IPA and roast pork knuckle in Wroclaw. A pretty perfect combination tbh 😋 #Bskybeer

In the old days I'd probably moan about this not really being a West Coast IPA, but who cares, it's just a nice hoppy beer in a lovely riverside beach bar in Wroclaw 🍻 #Bskybeer

Some drinks around Poznan. A good mix of crafty and less crafty beers was had in lovely surroundings and in good company 🙂 #BSkyBeer

Really nice American pale Zissou, from Polish brewery Inne Beczki. Hard to know for sure, but think Steve would approve. #BSkyBeer

First local crafty beer in Poznan, Poland. And tbf it's appropriately easy to polish off. #BSkyBeer

Nice walk up Rivington Pike today with the uber pooch.

A sad day where I must say a reluctant goodbye to my favourite beer glass 😔

Think Stan enjoyed* his Welsh walking holiday. *Well, up to the point at which his little legs were too tired and I had to carry his not inconsiderable heft

Evening.

Popped to the Marble Arch today to celebrate @beersmanchester.bsky.social being a bit older than he was yesterday. Great times with friends have been had, and Stan did seem to notice that a big plate of roast beef had turned up at some point.

This is one of the most important things we've ever published, handled with such delicate care and absolutely transparency by @davidnilsenbeer.bsky.social. I'm proud that Pellicle has grown into a publication that can be a home for stories like this.

The concentration levels are at 100%

Back home from a short trip to Spain but nice to find Whiplash beer Rollover* on at Beer 33** in Horwich. Pretty sure I first tried their beer at a Brettfest homebrewers event 6 years ago in cans. How time flies. *a very good 3.8% hazy pale for those interested **I refuse to call it B33R@33

Always been a big fan of Twitney Twooston.

Happy new year all. May you have as strong a year as this Stanley stance 💪

Bit late but it was a good canine Christmas.

Good old Stanley. The lovable little shit.

Not sure it's Stan's colour tbh.

Well, they have Buxton Brewery Axe Edge on cask and Wyoming Sheep Ranch on keg. So be rude not to pop into @cafebeermoth.bsky.social

Didn't think I'd get the chance to try another Stanlius Caesar...

Old and new

Fantastic to see @robinince.bsky.social for the first time live @xsmalarkey.com tonight. It was exactly as freneticly engaging and uplifting as I'd hoped. Although disappointly no free pitta bread was provided during this part of the show.
