No queuing at the bar, don't order cocktails, no table reservations and always buy your round. @pelliclemag.com's Essential Guide to Pub Etiquette will shortly be carved upon stone tablets and placed above the entrance to the toilets.

My favourite part of this was reading each individual section and seeing how quickly I could guess which author it was. @rachelhendry.bsky.social we clearly spend too much time together because I got both of yours at the start of the second sentence 😂

Plenty to disagree with here - all part of the fun!

The Pellicle Essential Guide to Pub Ettiquette! Already noted as curmudgeonly by @boakandbailey.bsky.social, we prefer "righteously bothered." Table rezzies, bogey-filled tissues in empty glasses, rounds and more, all documented for posterity. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/10...

New podcast! Meet Kerroo Brewing, the Isle of Man based brewery owned and run by locals Elizabeth and Nick. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/10...

Next Saturday at #ISBFX, @totalcurtis.bsky.social from @pelliclemag.com will be joining us to host a special panel talk exploring the struggles and successes of the UK’s independent bottle shops. This piece by Neil Walker, is well worth revisiting before then: www.pelliclemag.com/home/2021/5/...

Diane Flynt is key not just to the renaissance in cider throughout the South, but also at the very heart of orcharding for apples, specifically cider apples. It is always a joy to speak with her about not just cider apples, but growing apples for cider - an important distinction. #craftcider

Meet Diane Flynt, the first lady of Virginia cider. It's been a while since we published a cider story, we hope you enjoy it! www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/10...

This is an excellent @pelliclemag.com article on Macintosh Ales.....I have been known to enjoy the odd Saturday afternoon pint in there before dealing with the rest of the day. Must drag @kientan74.bsky.social here one day soon.......

Well, you learn something every day. Thanks Lily. I'm on my way.

This was a fun read!

A small, unassuming yard in Stoke Newington is actually the home of one of London's most enthusiastic pintmakers. Craft and heart come together at Macintosh Ales, as told by our very wonderful @lilywaite.bsky.social in both her words and photography. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/10...

The Waitress, a million personas, fetishes and expectations in one woman. A look at what it means to serve, by @rachelhendry.bsky.social www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/10...

This is such bold, adventurous writing from Rachel. Such a pleasure to be able to publish work of this calibre.

for @pelliclemag.com i've written about the formation of The Waitress: a facilitator of desires, a manager of expectations, a performance of manners. about what happens when success is dictated by character, about what it is to serve for a living www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/10...

"What is it that you want from your waitress?" Brilliant, @rachelhendry.bsky.social

I’ve written for @pelliclemag.com about the Dog and Bell, a unique pub whose evolution over the past 40 years nevertheless illustrates the story of modern London pubs. It’s here: www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

Articles like this are typical of why readers should support Pellicle. Brilliantly written and researched. I've been going to the D&G for 20 years and didn't know half of this. It's a miracle of a pub and one of the best in London.

When someone calls a pub an institution, there are always detractors. But we can't think of a single person who wouldn't agree that The Dog & Bell is exactly that. Will Hawkes joins us again for an insight into Deptford's most beloved pub. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

Proper Job is an institution. There, we've said it. Who better to talk about the legacy and impact of this IPA than @atjbeer.bsky.social? www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

It was a joy to research and write the story of St Austell’s Proper Job for @pelliclemag.com and it can be read here www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

I somehow contrived to missed this @pelliclemag.com article about the mighty Tennent’s Lager, but it is a beautiful piece about the cultural significance and history of their lager. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/8/...

A beautifully crafted hymn of praise for a beautifully crafted beer from @atjbeer.bsky.social in @pelliclemag.com www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

Fantastic @pelliclemag.com article about the consistently brilliant Proper Job. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

Ok ok, I really didn't know the backstory of Proper Job, I've really undervalued its place in UK/US beer. Quality read from @atjbeer.bsky.social in @pelliclemag.com this.

For Pellicle, I visited the UK’s oldest maltster, French & Jupps. Which specialises entirely in crystal and ‘patent’ roasted malts. This is part history of a company dating back to 1689, part technical look at how these malts are made, and why it matters in terms of the beer we drink.

I approve this message.

Malt 🌾 It's the basis of your pint, the backbone of beer. @totalcurtis.bsky.social visits French & Jupps to discover their processes, and learn about a beer business that's been open since the 1600s. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/9/...

What I like most about this story is that this guy did the James Watt stuff while James Watt was still in nappies, but he also did it without being an absolute cunt. What a fascinating life!

I had a lovely day with David Bruce while photographing him for my latest @pelliclemag.com feature. He’s some character; bursting with energy, knowledge, and anecdotes for all things beer and hospitality. Read @philmellows.bsky.social story below.

What a firkin' life! David Bruce began his career as a brewer in the 80s, and built a brewpub empire. @philmellows.bsky.social has a chat with the man he's known for four decades to ask him what motivates a dude in beer for all this time. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/8/...
