🚨We’re down to the last six cans of Grapefruit Schöff on the bottle and can bar. When it runs out you’ll have to drink cask ale🚨 Which is exactly our plan. We’re the campaign for real ale, not the campaign for grapefruit pale.

I’m very pleased to welcome a special guest to this week’s Friday update. @beer4john has been the chair of the Stockport and South Manchester @campaignforrealale branch for 27 years, and he’s also a very good mate of mine. This weekend sees the 37th @skbeerfestival and we’re both working here as volunteers. Yeah publishing writing and podcasts is important, but here is where the action is. So get down and support your local beer fest this weekend, you might just find a your new favourite beer. Or at least, one to rival it.View all comments

Food? Put a bhaji on it. Don’t go hungry at the 37th Stockport Beer & Cider festival by visiting one of our excellent food traders. Pairs very well with a Zapato Oso pale ale, take it from me.
