What was an awakening for me is that all of these breweries are on smaller scale than Hop Butcher. Very much smaller operations producing extremely high quality beers. Brujos had released another batch of Populace & it was there & gone. This TIPA collab was top notch. Drank more an Imp than a TIPA.
Kinell. No comment required beyond that. Other than ‘keepin’ it REAL’. 😂🤭🤣
Chuffed and dead excited over my WC haul. We drove 1,300 miles in five days, visiting eight or more breweries in Cali & Oregon. Airlines capped my checked bag at 50lb but still managed to get a full case in. Had all on draught but I’ll check in each as I start cracking them. #Bskybeer
Heaven. Pliny the Elder from the source. That is all. #Bskybeer
Chatted this one up on the coast in San Diego yesterday.
Up there with Monkish, Highland Park Brewing was a treat today. Across the street from Dodger’s Stadium, this chill brewery boasts a vibrant vibe. Family friendly, dog friendly, human friendly. This is DDH Pillow. Mosaic & Citra. Damn good hazies. Will return! #Bskybeer @sparkyrite.bsky.social
San Diego all the way up to Portland. Just checked into Frog Town after a stint at Highland Park Brewing. Highland is very good. LA is madness.
LA continues at Monkish with A Million Rhymes DDH with Galaxy, Rakau, Mosaic. #Bskybeer
Living LA la vita. First check-in at Green Cheek. Beer Co. If I Had My Druthers DIPA and a very crushable Slow Motion Dominoes IPA. #Bskybeer
Part of the lost FedEx lot?
This San Diego vibe is beyond chill. Supping Surreal Life at Pure Project. This one doesn’t bite or punch. It’s a soft juicy hop mix that slowly melts into your tongue. Citra Cryo, Mosaic Dynaboost, Motueka. Ace. #Bskybeer
Not just losing, mate. Swirling the relegation drain.

I could think of a worse ways to spend an afternoon in San Diego. Loving the North Park Beer Company selection. NZ-Fu! starts this one off. #Bskybeer
MGW has eyes in the back of his head. Flippin’ brilliant.
Pre-Nutty gig at Liberty Hall, Lawrence Kansas celebrating 30 years of Darrell Brogdon’s impossibly great @retrococktailhour.bsky.social. No Toto jokes. Drinking Free State Brewing’s nicely hopped Yakamaniac. #Bskybeer
Yeah. St David’s Day weekends getting away from me again. Hope the make it down! I’ll check in with you mid April. Don’t reckon tickets will sell out too fast?
We’re at a friend’s retirement party this weekend but we’re planning on the May gig in Grand Rapids. Say hi to Ritz and Rhydian from me! Diolch yn fawr.
Average day at work with a very nice Everyspring dry Irish stout. Easy drinker at 4% abv. Canning a nice WCIPA and a very tasty ESB. More on those later. #Bskybeer
WWJS?
There needs to be a new term like "stolen valor" for shit like this.
Also…
Olympic games are a wrap. Most Scots dinnae ken anything new about curling other than it’s addictive as hell. Snowboarding & skating continue to deliver. Speed skating was a wipeout. Meantime we’ve had no massive snow here. That’s in NYC. Thus, I give you Blizzard of ‘67. Big Sunday TIPA. #Bskybeer
Hoping you find a new gig, kid. I hate your situation.
Too right
Reform would create ICE-style agency and end leave to remain, Zia Yusuf to say
Kinell! 🤣
So many issues with officiating & VAR this weekend. Probably should have been 2-3. But no matter because every goal was punctuated joy. The City match was a mess.
@rickynow.bsky.social, I’m always on the lookout for the next ex-Forest manager. 🤦🏼♂️
