It's on! Our collaboration with our friends at Nightjar Brew Co. Hebden Bridge. Whippet Good, a rather modern and rather delicious #Yorkshire bitter. Lovely colour too, fresh conker for reference.

How many hops do we need to make our own beer? It's only 2 years old, and has been completely neglected., so hopefully if we give it a bit of love we'll have enough next year. We've a couple of beers with locally grown green hops due in the next couple of weeks. Keep an eye out for them.

1/3 Andrew's been buying every English hopped beer he can, so he jumped at the chance to do an English hopped bitter with Nightjar Brew Co. #HebdenBridge As a bonus their recipe uses two new hops, Boadicea and Godiva, from the Charles Faram hop development programme... #BeerSky #BskyBeer

Andrew's looking to the NE this weekend as he's just got access to some fab breweries up there. This includes Wylam — he's had a couple of excellent pales so he's now bagged two casks — and North Pier, new to him, excellent reviews, and who wouldn't want a pint of Northern Best? #BskyBeer #BeerSky

Eight pump clips on a wooden table: North Pier's High Tide IPA, 6%; Wylam's Confessions, summer pale, 4.5%; Runaway Brewery, Running Pale, 3.4%; Wylam's Plain Porter, 4.7%; North Pier's Northern Best 4.4%; plus some usual suspects: Turning Point's The Yeti Is Waiting Pale Ale, 4.8%; Mallinson's Elixir Mosaic, 4%; and Amity's Good Word Pale at 5.1%.

We asked Chatgpt to generate the most AI style promotional image for the pub and it's a doozy, an opalescent fox and goose gaze into the middle distance, text reads your local hub for conversation, connection and good times, boke. Weird hallucinated buildings and a canal can be seen.

Now then, were I down at the Fox today I'd be after a pint of this Brown Ale from Anthology. Why? Every beer I've tasted from this Leeds brewery has been fantastic. Moreover, there are some amazing classic browns and bests around, which seem to taste all the nicer after being drowned in IPAs.
