Fantastic article from @rachelhendry.bsky.social as per on the social perception of cask beer for CAMRA. Chuffed to provide illustrations for it. It's cask ale week somewhere: learn.camra.org.uk/courses/cask...

The green hops have been picked and rushed back to the brewery ready for this year's edition of HopWalk - last year we used Challenger and this year we've gone with British hop Ernest. This is available for pre-order and will be released in a few weeks.

Apologies if you've seen a call for pitches in a freelance work newsletter or site, its been done without our authorisation. Please be wary of stuff like this, as any calls for pitches will only come direct from Pellicle, never via any third party (we've been burned too many times doing this.)
