NEW VIDEO! This week we meet the archivist at @shepherdneame.bsky.social to be told the brewery is EVEN OLDER than 1698 – then get a tour of the big and little brewhouses, and dig into their PGI status beers. youtu.be/7GXRs580bEw

In this week's episode we are back at Timothy Taylor's for a tour, tasting and frank conversation about how cask ale has priced itself into a corner. youtu.be/UiR2m5XYWOg

Hey all I've written a piece for the wonderful @pelliclemag on the importance of cask, pubs and British brewing heritage in support of our Government petition to get Living Heritage status for cask ale. Give it a read, and SIGN THE PETITION! www.pelliclemag.com/home/2025/4/...

Ecstatic to say The Meaning of Beer took home Drinks Book of the Year at the Fortnum & Mason Awards last night! Huge thanks to everyone who helped me write it and bought it. You can buy the paperback from my local bookshop here (worldwide shipping!) www.davids-bookshops.co.uk/products/the...

I should have added it's up for a Fortnum & Mason award tonight, which is why I am even sweatier than you right now.

THE PAPERBACK of The Meaning of Beer is out today! Check out the sexy new colour, the lovely new cover quotes & the fact that I fixed the seven errors in the hardback! Find it at good bookstores, Amazon & of course my local bookshop (SHIPS WORLDWIDE)! www.davids-bookshops.co.uk/products/the...

It's upload time @everyone! Join us for an exploration of how Hofbrauhaus has shaped Bavaria and the wider world, all in the name of promoting the paperback of The Meaning of Beer, which is out TOMORROW! youtu.be/flfxCqqesX4

Here's today's thumb folks! It's.... it's not about cask!

Get behind @jonnygarrett.bsky.social @craftbeerchannel.bsky.social powerful campaign to give #CaskAle the UNESCO Cultural Heritage Status it deserves! Gathering steam with the support of indie brewers, @camraofficial.bsky.social & national media. Sign the petition #KeepCaskAlive

If you want to understand what pubs and breweries are up against, and why our Keep Cask Alive campaign is something of national importance, listen to this podcast Jonny was asked to be part of.

Hey folks! If you love cask ale, our campaign, The Sutton Arms, and Five Points Best you're gonna want to watch ITV News at 10!

Bless you all! Will update fully tomorrow.

25 signatures to go. If everyone who sees this tells a friend, we'll be there before bedtime. Tinyurl.com/save-cask

Hopefully today is the day this gets to 10,000 signatures! If you haven’t already signed the petition you can do it at petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71... @craftbeerchannel.bsky.social @jedmeers.bsky.social #caskale #keepcaskalive

Delighted to say our campaign to get cask ale Living Heritage status (and eventually UNESCO status) has made the Observer today! Huge thanks to them for taking the issue seriously, and digging deep into it. www.theguardian.com/food/2025/ap...

Genuinely possible we'll hit 10,000 signatures this weekend, but I am also really keen to get a signature from every constituency in the UK. We have about 10 holdouts. So if you know people in these grey regions, give 'em a nudge! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

The Craft Beer Channel has created a fantastic set of resources to help encourage people to sign their petition, which calls for British pub culture to be recognised as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Have you signed it yet?

We are live on Youtube folks! Grab a beer and come say hey: www.youtube.com/watch?v=H023...

Don't forget you can do more than just sign the petition! Put a poster up in your pub, write to your MP, get the logo tattooed on your cask drinking hand!

This is going to be a brilliant session, of interest to academics, journalists and drinkers!

Exciting news! Not sure how I'm gonna beat the Connaught recipe book though.

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We're nearly at 7,000 signatures and I want to hit 10k by Friday with your help! I've put together a google file with: - QR code posters to put up in pubs - Template letter to MPs - Logo for social - Press release & one page explainer Please spread far and wide! drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Last orders!!!

Hey folks! If you're hoping to join us for the online Keep Cask Alive after party you need to order your Kirkstall Brewery box by 9am tomorrow! www.kirkstall.shop/collections/...
