Popped into @NethergateBrew for a quick Stour Valley Gold, and stumbled upon an Oktoberfest going on 🍻Some great beers, both German and British, including Ayinger Celebrator, and @Skinnersbrewery Cornish Knocker that we couldn’t even find on draft in Cornwall this year!

It’s looking lovely and festive at the Dog and Duck in Linton, Cambs. Nice GK Fireside too by the fire!

Just visited the Axe and Compasses in Arkesden, near Saffron Walden, for the first time since it was rebuilt after a terrible fire in 2022. What a beautiful pub. Lovely Greek food too. We’ll be back!

…and now it’s time for the Superstition sparking mango session mead from the USA to finish off the afternoon session! So sweet, fruity, and incredibly tasty! @cambeerfest #cbf2024

Loving the @PhippsNBC Cobblers Ale at @cambeerfest. Such an easy drinking bitter and full of flavour, very moreish. And from my home town! #cbf2024

A customer at @cambeerfest tried the Redwillow Breakfast Stout and the Poppyland Black Poppy, decided he liked elements of both and asked if I could blend them together. And who am I to argue with a customer? He loved the result. I’m calling it Breakfast Poppy! ☕️🌺 #cbf2024

It’s brightening up at the Cambridge Beer Festival! It looks like the heavy rain has come to an end! There are some great beers on at the bar where I’m working. I’m particularly loving Old Cannon Gunner’s Daughter @cambeerfest #cbf2024

Enjoying a beautifully light and floral @NethergateBrew Stour Valley Gold while there’s still a bit of summer sun left even though it’s officially autumn. I love this easy drinking golden ale. Nethergate are great.
