A Little Help Goes A Long Way
As I mentioned in a previous post, I am heading to the UK in a few weeks, mainly for work, but with a little personal time chucked in as well. While I own the fact that I am a terrible beer tourist, I really don't plan my trips around breweries or beer cultures I want to visit - rather I go places and just see what is around. A key part of my planning process then, and maybe I a sad bandit for this, is to use Google Maps to find places in the locations that I will be, and then check out their websites to see if it is likely to be the kind of place I want to visit. It is almost exactly 15 years that I wrote a post called " Do Pubs Help Themselves? " in which I lamented the standard of many a boozer website. My biggest beef was that many pub websites go to great lengths to tell you about their wine list, their cocktail list, their food options, but almost nothing about what beers are actually on draft, which is just as true for a tied house as it would be for a free house. So you would l

Beer-based small business owners—whether you run a microbrewery, taproom, craft beer brand, or specialty beer-infused product company—face a unique challenge at local events: you’re often surrounded by noise.

The Power of the Pause: How a Reset Trip Can Recharge Your Mind, Mood, and Motivation
Modern life rarely offers a true pause. Between deadlines, digital noise, and constant connectivity, our minds rarely rest long enough to reset. Taking a “reset trip” isn’t about indulgence—it’s about repair.

A Really Good Year
2024 has been my most successful and my most prolific year as a freelancer. In fact it’s the most I’ve earned since 2018, when I was still on the editorial staff at Good Beer Hunting . Coincidentally, I’ve also turned in more work this year than in those previous—96 commissions and counting, beating my previous best of 83. Don’t get me wrong it’s not big money, but I’ve worked hard for that extra cheddar this year. More importantly than anything it's a living I cherish. I’ve also broken what I consider to be the awards hoodoo that caused me so much unnecessary stress in the past. My book, Manchester’s Best Beer Pubs and Bars picked up three awards—two silvers from the British Guild of Beer Writers and a gold from the North American Guild of Beer writers. I also picked up a further three nominations for my feature writing, and Pellicle , the crown jewel in my professional life, attained several more. Most significantly among these was a nomination for magazine of the year from the Briti
