Brewery and twitter account. Leith, laugh, love. It’s probably just a joke.

At some beer festival way back pre-Covid, probably about 2017, a guy in a Manchester City shirt told us we were the worst brewery there. He was technically correct but, still, hopefully he’s had a terrible evening.

At the end of every month we put the payroll through and the bank website says "are you 100% sure this isn't a scam?" and we have a good look at our staff and think "honestly not 100% sure, no."

Always knew these right wing grifters wanted to drag us back to the past but never realised that with their “repeatedly do something moronic then get their incomprehensibly gullible online fans to bail them out” schtick the very specific past they’re after is craft beer in 2016.

Yes we did see advert and considered applying for the job as Steven Bartlett’s head of social media but coming from the world of craft beer we’re just not used to grifting deluded oddballs.

At least all of us Leith breweries can stop shoehorning Sunshine On Leith into every other beer launch now.

Just remembered we're a brewery. Should probably try to sell some beer. Back once again (for the renegade master) it's Festbier! As ever, it's resplendent in a definitely non-copyright infringing can and 100% delicious. pilotbeer.co.uk/festbier
A can of Pilot Festbier, extremely cleverly done to look like a Panini football sticker.

We’re often asked why Oktoberfest is in September and the surprising answer is that the Germans just got it wrong.

13 years we've been at this and we still haven't managed to get a line in that Adam Brooks's pub. Come on Adam, what do we have to do here? There's only so many Union Jacks and Spitfires we can fit on a badge!

Beginning to look like sending 17 cases of beer to the guy who was doing the Ronnie O'Sullivan mural may have been a mistake.

Don't worry too much if you did badly in your A-levels, things could always be worse. For example you could have done badly in your A-levels and also have to drink beer from Jeremy Clarkson's brewery.

Apologies for the lack of content on here recently. We were explaining to a 10 year old that we watched the 1999 eclipse through a CD, then we had to explain what a CD was, then we had to explain what 1999 was.

Based on what they've been posting over the last 24 hours it's beginning to look like sending 17 cases of free beer to every UK journalist was something of a mistake.

This Friday we're off to White Hag's Hagstravaganza again, which gives us the excuse to bring up the time we inadvertently drew the ire of turboprop twitter.

Yep, sure is tough in the old brewing world these days. Still, good job we don't also have to compete with multi multi millionaire celebrities who could swim in a pool of their money like Scrooge McDuck launching beer brands just because they can.

Wonder if Spain might try something different in extra time and move from a possession based game to trying to catch Argentina out on the counter. Nobody expects the Spanish in transition.

At least now the American razzmatazz is out of the way, we can all look forward to a quiet 15 minute long half-time period with nothing but 3 ex-pros having a wee look back at some of the first half’s key incidents.

You might look at this opening ceremony and conclude Americans can’t do anything right but then remember that they also bought Brewdog and yes it’s really starting to look like they can’t do anything right.
