It's Launch day! See you all at @tomstapandbrew.bsky.social at 3pm

My latest What’s Brewing column is out now. I was going to write about the Bass reboot, keep it simple, but decided there was a more important topic that I wanted to write about instead 🏳️‍⚧️ wb.camra.org.uk/2025/05/08/s...

@milliemanders.bsky.social Afternoon Millie, got @ladiesofdarkness.bsky.social in to brew a Raspberry Pavlova White Stout, they're calling it Not a Cisterhood. Though you'd appreciate the sentiment.

Little Sean has joined us for our excursion to The Beer Emporium

Inspired by @morrighani.bsky.social, beer tasting at @tomstapandbrew.bsky.social tonight, we have started plotting our next beer. (Or started bugging @seanayling.bsky.social about it, which is where all pur beers start)

Hope all beer lovers will read the article by Laura Hadland in the link below. With upcoming news from the fab independent brewery in Crewe @tomstapandbrew.bsky.social Thank you and the @ladiesofdarkness.bsky.social for the work your doing and the fundraising www.justgiving.com/survive-coun...

I was a bit taken aback to read CAMRA's assessment of my latest What's Brewing column, but obviously delighted. I hope you read it & it makes you feel uncomfortable. Please consider why it makes you feel uneasy while drinking the @ladiesofdarkness.bsky.social beers. wb.camra.org.uk/2025/02/03/t...

It was lovely to have @morrighani.bsky.social along for our brewing day, and she's written a fab piece about it.

Very excited for this after QCing earlier this week.

Yeah, I've already had trade orders for four of the big stouts and one of the small ones. If you've not ordered from us before, dm me your email and I'll add you to the mailing list.

We had the best day at @tomstapandbrew.bsky.social yesterday brewing two beers for International Women's Day. 1. Women of A Certain Age, A Sticky Toffee Pudding impy stout 2. Shame Must Change Sides, a custard stout We're hoping they will blend well!

A great day brewing not one but two stouts for #IWD2025. Loved this picture Della took of me. She said some nice things too.
