🚨We’re down to the last six cans of Grapefruit Schöff on the bottle and can bar. When it runs out you’ll have to drink cask ale🚨 Which is exactly our plan. We’re the campaign for real ale, not the campaign for grapefruit pale.

I have resisted for so long, but I have caved and started doing video on my Instagram. Just a short weekly vid, which this weeks is recorded at @skbeerfestival.bsky.social and features the one and only @beer4john.bsky.social! Find it here: www.instagram.com/reel/DLHeZx9...

Congratulations to @thornbridge and Garrett Oliver of Brooklyn Brewery, their Strong Dark Mild brewed on the Burton Union Set is superb. Soft, caramel, dark fruity malts and full bodied. Lovely. At the @ssmcamra.bsky.social @skbeerfestival.bsky.social

Food? Put a bhaji on it. Don’t go hungry at the 37th Stockport Beer & Cider festival by visiting one of our excellent food traders. Pairs very well with a Zapato Oso pale ale, take it from me.

Just doing a little bit of quality control on the Theakston’s Old Peculier from the Wood. Find it on Bar Nouveau on the first floor!
