Penultimate from my @8sailbrewery.bsky.social stash, "Froglet". I've had it before, still great. #BskyBeer

😉

"Made Glorious Summer" special pale from The Union. A collab between @thornbridge.bsky.social , Garrett Oliver, and Brasserie de la Senne. With Fonio grain and pilsner malt, this delivers a soft Belgian funk with a hint of green apple to finish. #BskyBeer

"Mango Jaipur" from @thornbridge.bsky.social hits the spot. The perfumed sweetness of the mango works really well with the usual Jaipur bitter finish. A great way to replenish after yesterday's shenanigans. Bonus pic of yesterday's step count. #BskyBeer

57km done, felt it was best to call it quits. (Target was 50km.)

All ready for the start of the Shotley 24hr lapped run. I'm aiming for between 50 and 75k.

"Midwest" hoppy American wheat beer. Nelson Sauvin and Mosaic hops are right in your face. It's a lovely beer, with just a hint of a wheat beer finish. Great stuff. #BskyBeer

No beers for me Friday or Saturday, so thought I'd sample a couple from my @thornbridge.bsky.social subs box this evening. "Ster" continental lager is top quality, with a slightly appley/ citrussy finish. Glad I bought extra. #BskyBeer

"Fenland" 80 shilling Scotch ale from (you've guessed it) @8sailbrewery.bsky.social . A departure from the others from my stash, and a real stand-out. Top-notch darker beer. #BskyBeer

Possibly the last of the evening, "Heaps" NZ IPA from @thornbridge.bsky.social . Reviewed before, but still excellent. #BskyBeer

"Green Lane" stout from Cloudwater. They describe it as a step on the journey to perfecting a stout recipe, and to be honest it's not their best work. It's ok, but lacks a bit of body. Still better than a lot of others though... #BskyBeet

Next up is "Daisy & Doris" saison from @thornbridge.bsky.social . I enjoyed it so much when it was released that I bought a stash. #BskyBeer

"Summit About Nothing" single hopped pale from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social . It tastes and looks a bit like a dialled-back Chouffe or similar. It's absolutely perfect for a summer beer, and at 3.4% it's ideal for a session. #BskyBeer

"Best Bitter" from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social is, yet again from these guys, a quality beer. They describe it as a "no-nonsense best bitter" which is a fair description but doesn't mean it's not interesting. Great stuff. #BskyBeer

"Essence" IPA from Cloudwater, a lovely beer. #BskyBeer

Sticking with the "Happy birthday 'Murica" theme, "Pilgrim Pale" from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social . Lovely frothy head retention. Light and refreshing, good summer beer. #BskyBeer

Happy July 4th to friends from the US. From @8sailbrewery.bsky.social , an American East Coast-style pale ale. Nicely bitter, with an orange-peel tang and grapefruit finish. As ever from these guys, really good. #BskyBeer

This is another top beer from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social , "Millwright Mild". One of those beers that proves you don't need ABV for flavour. Superb. #BskyBeer

Ok. Pictures still not working, because this is a lovely DIPA from Cloudwater, "Citraboost". Feel free to imagine it. #BskyBeer

Cloudwater's "Infamous Fable" pale ale. Super vibrant, punchy flavours. #BskyBeer (When I logged in I saw people saying they can't share pics. I've had on and off issues for a few weeks, so now I screenshot pics from my gallery.)

I ran 30k this morning. I'm now broken, so after a couple of pints of Aspall's in t'pub I'm treating myself to @8sailbrewery.bsky.social "Windmill" bitter. Usual top-quality offering, at a nice sessionable abv. #BskyBeer

I have a target distance of 50k running this week. I'm at 48 and a bit so far, so am happy to crank out extra beers tonight, knowing I can chunder my way through 2k tomorrow if required 😂. "Nexus" from Cloudwater. Lots of technical stuff on the can, easier to say it's a lovely hazy IPA. #BskyBeer

My Waitrose beer excursion was inspired by finding Arbor in the wild when I popped in for a sandwich. I picked this one up yesterday, a collab with Hook Norton. To my clunky taste buds it's like a westie crossed with a more traditional English ale. Good stuff. #BskyBeer

Another really good beer. Slightly funky, malty and yet still fresh. #BskyBeer

I found myself in Waitrose yesterday in Saffron Walden. Their beer selection was superb and I will return for more (work takes me to SW a fair bit). This is an absolutely superb lager, with a lovely finish that lingers just enough. Deserving of my 46 year old stein! #BskyBeer

"Super Super Happy" IPA, a "Supercharged" brew from Cloudwater. It's all about freshness and you can taste it. Excellent again. #BskyBeer

Cloudwater x Shapeshifter "Trace the Horizon". Featuring a yeast strain called "Mango Madness" apparently, this is a bonkers pale that (unsurprisingly) slaps you with mango, ends with lime, and squeezes slightly funky NEPA in the middle. (Very nice, by the way.) #BskyBeer

Cloudwater "Cherry Sour Breeze". Definitely cherry, not particularly sour (at all). Very nice on a hot day. #BskyBeer

Next beer is "Twin Peaks" Anglo-American pale from @thornbridge.bsky.social . Reviewed before (I think). Still great. #BskyBeer

I went for Cloud water from Brewser this month. "The Ritual Continues" DDH pale. An absolute banger full of stone fruit, amazing on the finish. At 5% it's fairly sessionable too. #BskyBeer
