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.

The pub will be open as usual all evening, and we'd love lots of our wonderful shareholders and pub co-owners to be present. You won't have to do anything other than be in the background of the shot as we zoom link into the studio (and of course if you prefer you can go and hide in the back room).

Andrew has nobly pledged to be at the front of our queue when the bitter hits the pumps in a couple of weeks. Big thanks to Matt and Jake for making him so welcome. He's hoping they'll pop down to the pub once it's on for an informal meet the brewer session; watch this space for details.

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%.

All looks rather familiar, headgear notwithstanding.

The Fox and Goose @foxandgoose.org · 21/08/2026

2/2 We'll also have Harvest IPA, supporting young farmers, and Voices in the Sky, a hoppy pale from Turning Point. But he's most looking forward to Aretes, a West Coast Ipa from Trig Brewery, and Once in a Millennium, an East India Porter marking Blue Bee's 1,000th brew. #BskyBeer

010

The Fox and Goose @foxandgoose.org · 21/08/2026

1/2 Andrew thought we'd have a change of pace this week. Rather than hunting out new breweries we're returning to an old favourite, Linfit Brewery. Their English Guineas was his favourite on a recent trip to the Sair Inn. #BeerSky

2/2 ...we've also a couple of casks of Mallinsons Brewing Company's latest special called Wiggle Room, a tasty blonde featuring Nectaron and Simcoe. Fingers crossed we'll also have an Olicana IPA from Brewsmith Brewery, which he's really looking forward to. #HebdenBridge

2/ Sorry, still laughing at the #ChatGPT hallucination of the "most AI style pub promotional image possible" for our pub. 😆 Mind-bendingly awful. Don't have nightmares, do come for pints, pizza and tunes tomorrow. #HebdenBridge

1/ On 8 August we celebrate the 12th anniversary of our #cooperative pub. Unlike the dreadful #AI slop below, the Fox and Goose was built by humans, for humans (and their dogs). Community and connection feel more important than ever, so why not join us for a pint tomorrow. #HebdenBridge

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.

The Fox and Goose @foxandgoose.org · 07/08/2026

2/ So tasty that he's already wishing he'd bought more (he has a bigger cellar on his Christmas list). He's also really looking forward to Brand X, an old school IPA from Wilde Child Brewing Co. We've music from the Kismet DJs and food from Cuckoo Stone Pizza on Saturday, hope you can join us.
