It's the Keep Cask Alive finale! This week we explain what we've been up to behind the scenes as we launch our UNESCO campaign – including a trip to Belgium & a surprise invite to Parliament. Watch the video then make sure you sign the petition! youtube.com/watch?v=cY_krj…

@maskedparsnip @JonnyGarrett WOW this is cool! I hope you're having fun! Don't forget to visit the brewery!

A video a while back from @BeerChannel @JonnyGarrett was very inspiring. So here I am sat not far from the North Pole drinking a couple of beers from the world’s most northernly brewery in the Karlsberger Pub. Cheers.

WE'RE BACK BABY! It's time for our annual look forward to the year in beer, picking out what we think the big trends will be in the UK and further afield. We also look back at whether our predictions for 2025 were right, wrong or just plain stupid. youtu.be/Iql0r18ftSo

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL HANGOVER DAY! If you're bored of scrolling on your phone eating toast, how about filling out our annual CBC survey to guide what we make and how we do it for 2026? Some BIG questions in there as Youtube evolves... forms.gle/z9xVE4d6An8irL…

TOMORROW IS OUR CHRISTMAS LIVE SHOW! Grab some festive bevvies and join us at 8pm. You’ll also want to get a some mince pies, chocolate orange & blue cheese to get the full experience. And yes, there’s a QUIZ WITH PRIZES! youtube.com/watch?v=GGG0d4…

Hey everyone it's time for the last video of the year! This week is the finale of our Christmas brew - and things do NOT go to plan. Can I pull off a Christmas miracle and brew the Best Dubbel in the World? youtu.be/4FQiaDvLAns

This week's podcast is out and so is our Drinkalong box for next week's live show! Grab yours from @beermerchants and join us at 8pm on the 19th December for mince pies, good beer and bad jokes. Maybe a quiz? beermerchants.com/craft-beer-cha…

Hey everyone! It's time for the annual Christmas video! Grab a beer and at least one mince pie, then strap yourself in with some tinsel and enjoy the sleigh ride. youtu.be/x9YIxs7wXPA

A little note on this. We haven't made much homebrew content of late, because our narrative/deep dive approach takes a LOT of time. If you love our homebrew stuff, do consider joining our Patreon (and homebrew forum) here: patreon.com/craftbeerchann…

Hey all it's time for this week's video and we're back HOMEBREWING! Join me for the first of a two-parter in which I try to homebrew an iconic Westvleteren beer. No, not that one. youtu.be/d_eH6oOnm5s

We're going live on the channel for Love & Beer digital edition in 15 mins everyone! grab a beer (or three) and join us! youtube.com/live/cUWk80XuX…

BIG NEWS! Our Love & Beer Live Show will be happening NEXT THURSDAY at 8.30pm. The drinkalong box has 8 festival beers in, including our collabs with Baron, Utopian and Drop Project! VERY limited availability so be quick if you want in. beermerchants.com/craft-beer-cha…

NEW VIDEO! This week we play with the Fizzics Draft to get an absolute creamer of a nitro pour with A&H Black, and then find a hack to get a pretty good Snyt on a Czech Pils as well. Home Foam Party Game Changer or plastic fantastic? You decide. youtu.be/LqeOQc906nM

Hey everyone! It's fireworks night so what else could we do a video about other than SMOKED BEER! Learn about how most beer once had the taint of smoke, and how different materials can add different flavours to any kind of style... youtu.be/BiBfUABrzWg

It's time for this week's video! This week we're trying to recreate Kout 12 - a fabled and beautiful beer brewed by a now closed brewery in the wilds of Czechia – with our good friends (and pilsner nerds) @TeamUtopian. youtu.be/ucBJzZLKcVg

NEW VID! This week we visit St Mars of the Desert – a brewery that rejects style definitions, brews hazy lager, adds mad acids to its mash, hand paints anything that stands still long enough – and happens to make some of the best beer in the world. youtube.com/watch?v=xmJo-t…

The count down is on! FIVE days until our annual celebration of collaboration, homebrew, ingredients and street food. There are still tickets left - £25 gets you a glass, tote, a free pour and access to all THESE amazing breweries and their collab beers! tinyurl.com/love-and-beer-…

@LJINTHEUSA69 It will 100% be another heavy juice bomb. Still plenty of mileage and fun to be had with that style! At the festival we have a 6.2% Bright IPA and a 7.2% classic West Coast for crisper, more refined drinking.

@BeerChannel For me, the key to a great DIPA is complex yet crispness. Thick n juicy has been over done. 8% perfect. Keep it clean on the mouthfeel and make it easy drinking. Dare ya. Is it possible or will this be just another heavy juice bomb?

NEW VID! We're at Baron Brewing making a DIPA to end all DIPAs – 28gpl of Simcoe, Strata, Motueka & Krush. Very excited to see what people think of this beer at Love & Beer Fest next week! Tickets still available btw! youtu.be/80x-4v_DwtE

There's still tickets for our festival on 17th October at the Beer Merchants Tap! It's a celebration of collab brews, street food and homebrewing – with stunning beers from the UK's best plus free homebrew samples, hop/malt sampling & BBQs and burgers! themaltmiller.co.uk/product/love-b…

"I've broken the cask line, Bradley" This week we did our first ever shifts as professional brewers, working the day at @StAustellBrew as they brewed Tribute – we filled casks, handled the mash, skimmed yeast and of course tested it at the end... youtu.be/21Vo1LTDrNo
