So we’re starting small, I have a limited run of Fridge magnets which are available. I’ll be getting some other stuff done soon, but in the interests of checking the waters, I decided fridge magnets would stick to kegerators and keezer alike so I went with them.

If you want a fridge magnet, then you can send a PayPal payment to us Pm me for the address, trying to avoid the spam bots here… Friends and family or please cover the fees. The cost of them is £1.80 and that includes 2nd class postage to the UK. If you’re abroad and would like one, then PM me first and I’ll check the postage rates to wherever you are in the world.

They are rather cool, and the numbers are limited in the first instance, and prices may go up due to Brexit when I do a reorder. Please bear that in mind. Check back for more merch as and when I get it all sorted and on stream.

Love yas, even the shandy drinking southerners…. 😜😜

Episode 26 - Oxygen

This episode we talk about the perils of Oxygen, what it can do to your beer and when its good, and when its not. The audio for this one got a little garbled towards the end so the last 20 minutes or so is missing. Had to do a little diatribe to explain where we went. The salient points are all in there.

Special thanks on this episode to Boel Technologies and to Martina in particular for hooking us up with an iTap with crown cap to give away! Sign up for the newsletter to be entered into the draw which we will do live during episode 28!

Episode 25 is live!

So this isn’t a topic a lot of people cover, but after Tricky giving us a glimpse into his routine, we thought it might be good to cover this one in detail to dispel some myths and reasons why you shouldn’t use certain products without understanding the potential pitfalls.

Enjoy!
