@cheekface.bsky.social I see you’ve liked this skeet and I want to say I appreciate your music, dig the album, and that all creativity is vital in these crazy times.

I love the Ben Nevis in Finnieston, also Koelschip Yard, Grunting Growler, Inn Deep, State Bar, Pot Still. The Laurieston for a Jarl is essential.

On closer inspection it is not the same model, but very similar, here's the pic that came with the press release.

A great shout, it’s a proper decoction-mashed Czech style lager. It’s tasting really good right now.

Oh and one of the best beers I drank last year was Clara, a Mexican lager from Two Flints in Windsor.

RedWillow in Macclesfield produce an incredible range of lagers, including Kellerbier, Vienna and more. My favourite, Godless, uses Augustiner yeast. St. Mars of the Desert also do fantastic lagers with a bit more girth and rusticity than some others. Track's Arosa Helles is a fave of mine too.

Paul is a fascinating individual who’s worked in the beer industry for over 30 years, and was formerly the brewmaster at Anheuser-Busch, having also held positions at Diageo and SAB Miller. A brilliant opportunity to speak to someone as knowledgeable as him!

That's a tidy little selection of books right there.

Well the data (and the anecdote) says otherwise. I’d encourage you not to believe everything you see posted on LinkedIn. The reality of the market is very different to the viewpoints often posted over there.
