And with every concentration the scientists stepped further away from God

We are beyond proud of our brewer, @ThornbridgeDom, for winning Brewer Of The Year at @Britbeerwriters Awards 2024. Well done, Dom, to you and the whole brewing team! 🥳

Why small independent breweries deserve better presence in pubs thedrinksbusiness.com/2024/11/why-sm…

@tabamatu Oh awesome was wondering if it’d be SIBA. Well done mate!

@itsNeilWalker Thanks - and congrats to you too! The book was published just too late but I entered a couple of my articles for SIBA magazine and a piece I did on Simpson’s for Brewers Journal.

Thrilled to be shortlisted in the Best Technical Communication about Beer category. Well done to all finalists and good luck!

Newcastle and back in a day for a 30 minute TV interview about @indiebeeruk. I’m nothing if not dedicated to the cause

@BeerPrimeUK @ColinStronge @LostCauseBrew @SIBANational @indiebeeruk Really hope this was recorded after we sorted out your listing @ColinStronge 😘

Episode 101 of Beer Prime is available featuring @ColinStronge of @LostCauseBrew. There’s also a little chat with Neil of @SIBANational about their new @indiebeeruk campaign. 🎧 tinyurl.com/ywu8hzz7

Been such a busy day this hasn’t quite sunk in! Will be opening a beer this evening in celebration🍺 ✍️ 🏆

Absolutely delighted my piece on @joulesbrewery for @pelliclemag has been shortlisted in the @Britbeerwriters Awards for ‘Best Communication About Pubs’

@PhilH23 @drinksmaven @teamdb @Solebear @burningskybeer @gillyinthepub @FirestoneWalker @MarkCTranter @SIBANational @AnspachHobday @CAMRA_Official No, because it’s a glass specifically made for beer.

@itsNeilWalker @drinksmaven @teamdb @Solebear @burningskybeer @gillyinthepub @FirestoneWalker @MarkCTranter @SIBANational @AnspachHobday @CAMRA_Official Because it has beer in it 🤣

Has beer reached its post-craft renaissance? thedrinksbusiness.com/2024/11/has-be…

@PhilH23 @drinksmaven @teamdb @Solebear @burningskybeer @gillyinthepub @FirestoneWalker @MarkCTranter @SIBANational @AnspachHobday @CAMRA_Official That’s not a wine glass

@drinksmaven @teamdb @Solebear @burningskybeer @gillyinthepub @FirestoneWalker @MarkCTranter @itsNeilWalker @SIBANational @AnspachHobday @CAMRA_Official Beer in a wine glass 🤣

@RoostersTom @TheFreeTradeInn @indiebeeruk Yeah think so. Such a good day

@itsNeilWalker @TheFreeTradeInn @indiebeeruk Good times. 2011 wasn’t it?

Funny how things come full circle. Just discussing meeting over a decade ago at #Twissup with Mick from @TheFreeTradeInn, after arranging to do an ITV interview there next week on the @indiebeeruk campaign.

This news tops off what has been a huge launch week for the @indiebeeruk campaign, building on the lobbying work happening behind the scenes. The detail and scope of the review will be important, but this is a hugely positive step forward.

Superb piece in today’s @guardian by @katiematherkm on the ‘corporate takeover of craft beer’ and how the @indiebeeruk campaign is seeking to level the playing field theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@DonnyBrewery @totalcurtis @ByRobDavies @SIBANational Non SIBA members listed on the website and marked as independent if they are. Its a campaign for all indie brewers not just siba members

@totalcurtis @ByRobDavies @SIBANational I could be wrong, but suspect only Siba members will be listed on the website.

We're proud to support the new @indiebeeruk campaign, helping beer drinkers find great beer from truly independent breweries such as us. #IndieBeerUK #BuyLocalBeer #BuyIndieBeer

@thebeernut Essentially definition is same as it would be for SIBA Membership; less than 1% market share, U.K. brewed, and independent of larger brewing organisations over 1%. If you think we’ve got something wrong email us via office@siba.co.uk and we’ll look into it

@itsNeilWalker As a regular grappler in this particular arena, I'm very aware how it goes. But surely there's a set of criteria, rather than just deciding on vibes? Is Whitewater out because of C&C's stake or because C&C is foreign?

Can any SIBA-whisperer explain why Greene King isn't an independent brewery because it's owned by Greene King?

This is a great deal from @atticbrewco to celebrate the launch of the @indiebeeruk campaign. Just ordered a mixed case myself! 🍻 #indiebeeruk #buyindiebeer
