A collaboration! We have got our heads together with our long-standing customers at the White Horse, Edwardstone to brew this lovely session beer using Tom Norton's own organically-grown floor-malted barley and the finest US cascade hops which money can buy. @EdwardstoneWH

We are joined today by our friends Dani and Tom from the White Horse Edwardstone, for the brewing of Loveleys Fair (a straw-coloured 4% beer) using Tom's own organic barley malt. Don't worry, Tom agreed to leave all of his wild yeasts at home! @EdwardstoneWH

@CompaniesHouse Your new annual confirmation online filing system linked to gov.uk One is an absolute shambles and an unreasonable burden on businesses, plus you have the cheek to charge £50 for the privilege.

Speaking of old friends . . . . but not quite as fierce as we remember it of old. Still top-notch, though!

@CAMRA_Official @CAMRA_Official The issue of forthcoming increases in business rates has achieved little publicity, but deperately needs to be highlighted. Pub businesses *will* fail as a result of this change in April 2026.

@WBOnline_ This demonstrates without doubt that the government has no idea of the cost pressures than are weighing hospitality down. This is a useless initiative for most.

It's new beer brew day and our faces lit up when we opened up these hops. The beer will be a few weeks in the making but well worth waiting for, we think.

Which do you prefer? Left is filtered and carbonated, right is bottle-conditioned. We know where we stand on this!

@PiersBaker @RachelReevesMP Absolutely this. Employers' NI is the largest incentive for employers to not employ people and should, quite simply, be abolished. Do you want burdens on or contributors to the coffers?

@CAMRA_Official @JonnyGarrett That's incorrect. A tapped cask of correctly-brewed beer which has had nothing drawn off it can last for weeks or even months, without deteriorating. It is once the contents start to be dispensed which signals the start of the deterioration, not the tapping.

@CAMRA_Official April 1st, 2025 is likely to prove a very dark day for many small retail businesses including pubs. The huge reduction in business rates relief for those businesses will be the straw that breaks many a camel's back.

We last brewed this in 2016, apparently - the super-duper Summit hops from the US are not always available! Arriving in draught form at discerning local outlets from next week onwards.
