Staying at Steelfish. This collab between @steelfishbrewco.bsky.social and @torrside.bsky.social was brewed just over a year ago. This is the last ever cask and it really is superb and has kept a huge amount of resiny hoppiness. Dangerously drinkable.

2/ He's particularly looking forward to Pangoltergeist from Tartarus Beers; they really know how to pack flavour, this'll be no exception. Finally, I'm Not Spartacus, from @torrside.bsky.social; a new take on their flagship IPA, we're sure it'll be fab. Do you like black IPAs? 🖤 #BeerSky

On the beer blog: one beer that I liked more than another beer, and what this tells us about BrewDog's refinancing deal. (Probably not very much, but humour me.) ohgoodale.wordpress.com/2026/02/22/a...
