A huge thank you to everyone who joined in with #Collabageddon!

From the breweries who collaborated and venues who poured, to Sellar sorting the distro, and everyone who tried the beers, we’re so grateful

He'll hate me for saying this but this fella deserves some sort of lifetime achievement award. Somebody will tell me how much @salfordbeerfest.bsky.social has raised for charity over the last ten years but this festival is so much more than that. It brings people together in the best way.
Moscow is reached at 11:30 pm

This is the final push.

Send hopes and prayers for my energy levels 🤣

I'll be signing copies of 'Made in Manchester' and 'Northerners' at the wonderful Waterstones Altrincham on Saturday 22nd November, 5.30-6.30pm. It's the evening when the town's Christmas lights are switched on.
