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

Yes diesel is expensive at £2 a litre but a milkshake IPA works out at about £18 a litre and tastes an awful lot worse.

Nothing worse than when you’re trying to siphon some milkshake IPA out of one car and into another and you accidentally suck some into your mouth.

And the good thing about diesel is it smells nice and then when you taste it it isn’t pumped full of lactose like some kind of syrup for babies.

Pilot superfans, yes both of you, may remember that Peach Melba only exists because we accidentally ordered twice the amount of peach we needed for the original Buck's Peach brew and had to come up with something else sharpish,

NEW BEER TIME! Well, old beer re-release time. IT'S BUCK'S PEACH! A peach wheat beer that's dry hopped with some new world hops that muggins here has forgotten and can't be bothered to look up. Anyway it's probably delicious. pilotbeer.co.uk/collections/...

Still, some good news at last! We've managed to save an awful amount of cash by firing our lawyers and accountants and just hiring Manchester City fans off Twitter who are surprisingly well qualified in all such things. Apparently.

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.

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.

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.
