Beautiful Cosmos

They're coming to The Joiners in Southampton (UK) in May.

That's a brave one for a Monday night!

Cheers!

Very special gig in Hebden Bridge last night at the Trades! Now if we can just get the blowers sorted. @nightingalesuk.bsky.social

@bskybeer.bsky.social Home alone tonight, and enjoying a Lost Pier hazy IPA - 7.5% ABV Brown Boxes are Greener. Description says "dangerously drinkable". I'd definitely agree. #bskybeer #craftbeer #indiebeer #lostpierbrewing

@bskybeer.bsky.social Happy 12th Birthday to my local craft ale bar, The Butcher's Hook in Bitterne Park, Southampton. #bskybeer #craftbeer #indiebeer #southampton #gobigorgohome #butchershook

Strong Message Here - History Will Judge You (with Stewart Lee) - BBC Sounds Is history still written by the victors? How do people try and control their legacy?

New Ep now up. Stewart Lee and I discuss swearing at the BAFTA’s, Blair’s legacy and Gerry Adams trampolining naked with a dog. #StrongMessageHere www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

@thomastruax.bsky.social Wonderful evening seeing Thomas Truax supporting The Nightingales at The Joiners in Southampton last night. #livemusic #thejoiners #mothersuperior #thenightingales #thomastruax #southampton

@bskybeer.bsky.social Half-term hols, so enjoying a cheeky Mittwoch beer - the last of the cans of Phantom Brewing Co from the beer fridge. This one seemed particularly weather appropriate. Infinite Rain - 8% DIPA. #bskybeer #craftbeer #phantom #reading #indiebeer

Fantastic evening seeing Ben Ottewell and Ian Ball of #Gomez at @thebrooksoton.bsky.social last night. We knew it would be a good gig, but it exceeded all expectations. Vocals to send shivers down your spine! #livemusic #southampton #thebrook

@bskybeer.bsky.social Just came across this at our local craft ale bar, The Bottle & Stoat in Southampton. First time I've had beer from Stardust Brewery and it was very tasty indeed! #saturday #bskybeer #bottleandstoat #craftbeer #indiebeer #stardustbrewery

Just came across this out in the wild, at our local craft ale bar, the Bottle & Stoat in Southampton. Lovely stuff and first time I've had a beer from #stardust.

They are fairly new on the scene - based in Wokingham. Apparently a tap room is coming soon. I've really loved the ones I've tried so far.

@bskybeer.bsky.social Kicking off Friday night with Rain, a 'weather appropriate' 5.6% NEIPA from Bearwood Brewery. Cheers, everyone! Happy Friday. #craftbeer #indiebeer #bearwoodbrewery #fridayfeeling #bskybeer

If you see this, post a character that starts with C..

@bskybeer.bsky.social Good to see #UnityBrewingCo finally brewing some different beers. They've been pretty samey since new owners took them over in 2023. Had to try this nutty white stout 'C is for Cookie' - very drinkable, if a bit pricey. #bskybeer #craftbeer #overdraft #southampton #veganbeer

My first #CakeSaturday of 2026. A vegan cherry and almond slice at the wonderful Café Thrive in Southampton. #vegan #cakesaturday #cafethrive #southampton www.cafethrive.co.uk

@bskybeer.bsky.social Can't go wrong with a Floc. beer. 6.5%DDH IPA 'Cutting Loose'. #bskybeer #craftbeer #indiebeer #nearlytheweekend #flocbrewery #canterbury

Fantastic evening at Heartbreakers Bar in #southampton for Dan O'Farrell and the Difference Engine's album launch. Lovely to see it packed out with Southampton music lovers. Excellent support from Charles Bueller and Jack & Bas. A great night out! #hearbreakerssouthampton #livemusic #southampton

@bskybeer.bsky.social Getting Friday night started with a Rush DDH IPA from Floc Brewery #craftbeer #flocbrewery #canterbury #indiebeer #bskybeer #friday

Want to get your #IVW26 outfit ready for next week?... This is your reminder that our shop is open and up on our website, full of fab merch , either as a treat to yourself of a gift to your fellow gig buddy 💛

@bskybeer.bsky.social Took a last opportunity to order a Zot Blonde at Belgium & Blues in Southampton yesterday. It's become too expensive to import. Hope B&B is going to keep going. Everywhere seems to be really struggling at the moment. #belgianbeer #belgiumandblues #southampton #bskybeer

I’ve got a very rare Charizard Pokemon card if anyone wants to trade for a Nobel Peace Prize.

We've got our tickets for Southampton :-)

@bskybeer.bsky.social Enjoying a birthday and end of the working week celebratory beer! One of the last of the Phantom beers in our beer fridge - Infinite Rainbows 8% DIPA. Very nice! Phantom will be sorely missed. #phantombrewingco #craftbeer #indiebeer #bskybeer #weekend

I've been enjoying the Storm Series too. Got a few in over Christmas, and have just stocked up on a few more. Nice to see Bearwood beers in my local craft ale bar recently too.

Love Tartarus. Their beers don't reach us often enough in Southampton.
