We've been saying to anyone who'll listen that when Govt raises taxes too much people will find ways to evade or avoid paying them.

It's not just me then. What I want to know is what 3FA will look like once 2FA is no longer secure enough?

That time of day when the haulier hasn't yet arrived and you start to wonder if they're going to? Yeah that's now

There should be a special place in hell for brewers who attach unnecessary stickers to the sides of ecasks

I don't think I could ever get bored of the Sussex countryside

Packaging this on Monday ....

Having to scrounge pallets so we can ship out beer wasn't something I ever thought I'd have to do.

Part way through work today we lost part of our 3phase supply. UKPowerNetwork have been brilliant in identifying and resolving the problem for us.

I guess we'll actually have to make this now ...

Currently watching the Dimbleby Lecture ... nothing but respect and awe for Gareth Southgate

Long long day today. Haven't done a double shift for a while. So far haven't made any mistakes (that I'm aware of) ....

On my fourth mug of tea already this morning

Waiting for spring to start so we can get back to brewing dark beers ...

At the start of 2024 we set ourselves a sales target and a "fantasy" sales target and have exceeded both. Have already set targets for 2025 which are now looking incredibly achievable and possibly slightly pessimistic ....

We might have been persuaded into selling a lot of casks today

I've just noticed that our Farams calendar has a mistake! The week numbers are out by 1 from June/July onwards. Yes this is an admission it's taken me 6 months to spot this error 😱

You just don't see examples of selfless public service like this as often these days ....

Unexpectedly busy day. Time for a celebratory beverage.

Once again I find myself "working" late into the evening

Set up a couple of finings tests yesterday and the results this morning are good. The pale one is the collab we brewed with @boozertron.bsky.social which is 2002 in a glass

My evening so far .... couple of beers in a couple of pubs and random conversations. Now engaging with local takeaway food

Still working ... honest ....

Like many brewers we're all finding reasons to be in the cold store today

I've spent less time today shouting profanities at this device than usual ....

Looking forward to tomorrow 'cause we've got Sunken Knave coming to collab with us. We've trawled through the brain of one of modern British brewing's godparents and we've picked a recipe from 19/07/02 ....
