🌳🌳🌳 11 Beers from 11 different breweries through the week. Something we’ve always wanted to do and we’re excited to finally pull together. Full beer list incoming…

Collaboration in beer is an often abused term, but it really can be a wonderful thing. It often provides we brewers with the opportunity (or just an excuse?) to try something new, or experiment down roads less trodden. Here are just some of the beers we're pouring at this weekends' #Stocktoberfest

“The waitress doesn’t fancy you and she doesn’t want you viewing her instagram stories, she’s just trying to do her job and she’s doing it well, leave her to it.” 👏👏👏

Langerei, Brugge - 9.46am this morning.

Alongside our taproom being open on Friday and Saturday (12pm - 8pm), we’ll also be pouring at Gravity Beer Festival in Edinburgh and at Suds Fest in Birmingham this weekend! 🎟️ Gravity Festival: www.citizenticket.com/events/gravi... 🎟️ Suds Fest: ticketing.designmynight.com/events/68790...

Time for another Tipple Testimonial! ✨ Henry contacted us when @sunkenknave.bsky.social  was only at the idea stage. We worked with him on his target market, strategy and branding and made sure the brewery was exactly what he had in mind.  If you haven't already, give them a follow

What we did in school today. Here’s an amazing graphic summary, drawn by Rebecca Osborne as we talked, of today’s Pubs in the Community meeting @nottinghamtrentuni.bsky.social organised by @culturalclare.bsky.social

Starting the day with multiple cups of tea whilst I catch up on some @foodism.bsky.social reading, including this piece from @davidjesudason.bsky.social foodism.co.uk/features/lon...

Interesting to read that Strongbow is adding Navilens to its packaging, to support visually impaired people: www.foodbev.com/news/heineke...

Well. Not only a post to melt any heart but a brilliant explanation by Hannah of why #ISBF is so important. Come for the beer, stay for the lovely people you’ll meet and know that you’re helping people to help people #mentalhealthmatters

Don't miss tonight's celestial show...🌕🪐 The Corn Moon, our last full moon of summer, will rise in total lunar eclipse...glowing deep red as a Blood Moon. Catch it climbing the horizon from 19:30, with Saturn shining close by, shining brighter than usual.

Hopfenweisse - I've been waiting for this!

7th & final stop = Oud Beersel Bierhuis. Bloody hell, the hill up from Drie Fonteinen is steep! -& lethal on way down after a beer or two 🤣 - but what a great place to round off a splendid day of lambic drinking. Huge thanks to @whatjoewrote.bsky.social & @andrewdrinks.bsky.social for great day out!

We’ll have the usual fabulous tunes from Mike & Jo’s Rebellious Jukebox at #ISBFX, so make sure to add your jukebox selection, and hand it to @ziggystairlift.bsky.social to add to the playlist. 🎟️: www.universe.com/events/independent-salford-beer-festival-isbfx-tickets-Y6KWQ4

GOOD MORNING! Here's our regular weekly round-up of good writing about beer and pubs, with thoughts on great pubs versus good pubs; David Bruce's career; pub skittles; and the retirement of a legendary publican. 🍻🍺 boakandbailey.com/2025/09/news...

Sharing this ahead of a barrage of ‘but it’s legal tender’ comments about JD Wetherspoon: www.bankofengland.co.uk/explainers/w....

Thursday night at Leeds International Beer Festival 2025. The first time with lots of lovely dogs. Cask Harvey’s - Sussex Best through a sparkler👌🏻

On the Friday Lunch session of #ISBFX we’ve got a tasting of beers from Richard, founder of @tunbrewing.com. We’ve never had a tasting on a Friday afternoon at Hemsley House, so we’re really looking forward to it!

You can now add people to a Starter Pack directly from their profile. Starter Packs make it easy to recommend accounts to follow. They already drive nearly 20% of all follows on Bluesky!

📢 v1.107 is rolling out now! We've done what was previously thought to be impossible: you can now add image or videos to your post using one magical button. Just one step in making posting simpler and more enjoyable.

Music affects taste — including when we drink. For @vinepair.com, I talked to @petebrownbeer.bsky.social about his new book, “Tasting Notes: The Science and Art of Pairing Beer and Music,” among others, about how hearing influences our other senses. vinepair.com/articles/mus...

Ngl it's a pretty solid keg line-up at the moment. The 3 Fontenein is unsurprisingly incredible.

#COLLABAGEDDON fans, it’s time to reveal who’s brewing with who this year:

Dean & Britta on the last night of their UK tour at the Engine Room, near North Shields Fish Quay. A beautiful eve. #galaxie500

Britta Phillips singing ‘Drive’ is precisely the kind of earworm I needed today. Such a lovely couple of nights repping Dean & Britta’s gigs this week. Next up: This Is The Kit at Pop Recs tonight. open.spotify.com/track/4q6zRM...

If you’re looking for more great breweries and beer people to follow here on Bluesky, we’ve made a list of everyone on here who’s at #ISBFX go.bsky.app/K4KoJRf

Squawky says good morning from #NorthShields #ChimneyTuesday #UrbanGaze #StormHour #PhotoHour

Four gigs this week…

Omg we got to meet (and feed treats to) the famous police cat of Amsterdam!!

This week in @thetimes.com we’re off to Somerset! Eight fantastic pubs, many of which feel forgotten by time. Time for some cider! (paywall) www.thetimes.com/life-style/f...

Shout out to the café that just responded to my Google review a mere 16 months after I posted it.

In today’s @dailystar.co.uk refreshment is total with my beer of the week from Round Corner Brewing

Okay, you insatiable SOBs have convinced me to go to @salfordbeerfest.bsky.social. Got one of the last 3 tickets to the Friday early session, too!

I had an absolute blast last week on @bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social pairing drinks to the various new releases on the show as part of the launch of new book Tasting Notes. It’s available for another couple of weeks if you want to listen.The tunes are good! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

The Czech lands have 28 registered hop cultivars, though legendary Saaz (aka ŽPČ) makes up 82% of the country’s total acreage. New cultivars like Saturn, Juno and Eris are currently very hard to find, but they just might be the future of Bohemian hop character. beerandbrewing.com/the-world-of...

One of the biggest selections of Cask beer at any UK beer fest, 1000s of pints to be pulled. @camraofficial.bsky.social #PeterboroughBeerFestival opens this evening to Saturday, on the river Embankment, minutes from Peterborough railway station. #BskyBeer

1st visit to Zwevegem International Streekbierenfestival, just outside Kortrijk. Highly enjoyable so far despite full measures in breweries' own glasses, which have to be returned after every beer. Excellent beer list including beers from Ghana, Scotland, Spain...

Lovely drop of old school mild as my beer of the week in today’s @dailystar.co.uk - this tremendous collaboration between @heritagebrewingco.bsky.social and @sunkenknave.bsky.social

From back in the good ol’ days when there was “lots of money sloshing about”… here’s me presenting Graham with a kettle which he had won… 🏆 … somehow or another.

Hey friends, any independent whisky bottlers out there who'd like to talk to me for a story in Decanter? Doesn't matter if you're new to the game or been at it for ages. #whisky #journorequest

‘Woodie’s Sweet Factory sounds like a headline-grabbing idea with little thought of the effects. Worst of all it stereotypes children and the way they should act’ This article is subtler than my headline suggests and it’s about how pubs can support parents wb.camra.org.uk/2025/08/05/p...
