Started making notes on a beer wish list for Peterborough Beer Festival (I won't be ordering, someone else can do that), and so far all I've got is "Yes." and "Lots." 🤣 You can see why someone else will be doing this 🤣

Keystone creditors owed some £15.3m prior to its pre-pack sale to Saltaire Brewing, new documents reveal. Details via @thegrocer.bsky.social 👇👇👇 www.thegrocer.co.uk/news/keyston...

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

I'm having a "hungry day" where I just want to eat everything in sight. I had lunch early, afternoon snack early, and now I'm wanting a Big Dinner. Which would mean either cooking one or ordering one in. And I don't want to do either :¬/

Cricket people - this kind of thing was easier when I had the cricket twitter account - do we know a friendly Bangladesh fan who lives in the UK I could chat to?

Local @camraofficial.bsky.social branch meeting tonight. And, er, I'm now the Peterborough Beer Festival Organiser. No longer interim, I'm now in it fully. You heard that right, they've put me in charge of the largest beer festival in the country. 🤣

The only trans people mentioned in the epstein files are victims. Hundreds of known anti-trans people are in them, though, either rubbing shoulders with the rape-cult, an active part of the clique, or trying to gain access. Are you getting it yet?

I got bored earlier. This isn't the logo, just me messing about, but I kinda like it.

We were told artificial grass was wonderful, turned out it was shit. We were told artificial flavours were wonderful, turned out it was shit. We are told artificial intelligence is wonderful, I think we know how this goes.

They are mentally unable to accept a loss.

www.thenational.scot/news/2493240... The moral authority of BD's James Watt & Elon Musk. What's not to like?

Does what it says.

Good god. We've spent a decade with the British media - including the BBC - claiming that the 'gender critical' movement wanted to 'protect women and girls'. And it turns out Jeffrey Epstein was funding part of it.

Cask ale drinkers? If given a choice do you prefer to drink your pint from a glass with a handle, or a glass without one? Doing some research and trying to gauge what the general consensus is (if any)

I really need to take up running again. So I'm now wondering if these new tablets which are helping me sleep better as well as drop the blood pressure might also be helping my breathing :¬/

I absolutely love threads like this! Full of superb tidbits and facts about history in the weirdest ways. Seriously, follow Sophie!

If they can remove Andrew's titles they can remove Mandleson's.

Right, #BrewDay! Just a test brew today, using up old ingredients to check the flow of the setup, that everything's working, and the quantities fit in the kit. Did a full deep clean and leak test the last couple of days, now to start playing around with ingredients. First step, cup of tea.

"Be warned, if you do get stuck in on the pints in this ground-floor Guinness restaurant and need to spend a penny, the loos are on the fifth floor, and reachable only by lift. Guinness, let the record show, cannot organise a piss-up in a brewery"

Today is the last day of Dry January for those of you that have been doing it. So it follows that tomorrow is the first day of Wet February. Please note, you don't have to have done Dry January to partake in Wet February.

Publicans (and taproomicans): has January been as quiet/busy as you expected? More so? Less so? You can DM if you like. We're after data.

Fuck, Catherine O’Hara has left us.

Wonder Man.

Spotted in Tesco. Wychwood Brewery certainly knows their target demographic

friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding in Melania theaters bc he knows people assume no one is in there

The extremist Matt Goodwin, the Farage/Reform candidate in the forthcoming by election, has deleted this now. Please feel free to share, especially in Manchester.

BREAKING: WIN 🏳️‍⚧️ 💥 The High Court just refused Sex Matters' permission to ban trans women from the Hampstead ponds. We're relieved that the ponds can remain a place where trans people have always belonged. Thank you to the all the people that pushed back against division.

The result of the Cold War is finally in…

Yet she neglects to mention that her daughter was murdered because she was trans, not necessarily because of SM.

All aboard the Springfield monorail

How is it STILL January!?!

Brewdog axes all spirits and closes distillery @teamdb.bsky.social

The look on her face is the sort you normally see when someone clearly off their head on drugs starts telling some utter batshit crazy story and you can't get away.

I'm trying to actually spend a day (well, through to early afternoon) working in the brewery to get everything ready for a flush through wet run and a trial brew day at some point this week, but one hour spent stood up has reminded me that my back isn't so great these days :¬/

This is actually really good with Vimto 😁

Ran out of vodka, so the time has come to open this. Last time I had cashew feni I lost a couple of days 🤣

Vodka and Ribena, gotta love it 😁

The defection of Suella Braverman, who was sacked twice from Government in disgrace, spent £700m of taxpayers' money to send four volunteers to Rwanda on a deportation scheme that was then scrapped and has a public approval rating of minus 32 is currently being described as a "major coup" for Reform

Shocked and saddened to learn of the sudden & unexpected passing, on Friday, of Dave Cornell, owner/brewer of Poppyland Brewery in Cromer. Dave played a key role in the Norfolk/Belgian Brewers Collab. A kind and lovely man, brother of beer historian Martyn. Deepest condolences to Mandy. RIP Dave.

The union has landed in Wolverhampton! I wasn't going to post anything for a couple of weeks until I can show it to you, but I'm too excited.

I've finished the Big Report that I've been working on all the last week, so I'm sacking off anything else productive and firing up Civilization6 to completely loose the afternoon! 🤣

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Esther Ghey is facilitating the rewriting of history. The circumstances of Brianna’s death are being rewritten to obscure the fact that she was murdered for being trans. It is mentioned not once in this article. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Maybe trump sees himself as the penguin?

I'm going to the pub. I may be some time.

I really miss summer. I've just been sat after my shower without socks on, my feet open to the air and really enjoying it. Until they started to realise it's cold. :/

Another day of converting spreadsheets and notes into a report. Hoping this is the last day of it, because I really need to get back to setting up a brewery 🤣

Can't we do the full 260 days of January?
