Ashamed to say I still have yet to go to the Pocket Islington that everyone is raving about. I knew its predecessor, the Four Sisters, and its superb sibling, the Southampton Arms in next door Kentish Town, #Cask heaven. Award winning @elusivebrewing.com Oregon Trail & Arbor favourites. #BskyBeer

Walking down to Angel from Highbury Islington (and dodging the chuggers) - be rude not to stop past the Pocket for one and even more so when there's cask @elusivebrewing.com Oregon Trail....

Today Colin Gilham and I ran a tasting of @elusivebrewing.com x @unbarredbrewery.bsky.social x Lallemand Brewing Experiments in Yeast at Two Tails Taproom. Four beers brewed with the same base recipe, but each pitched with a different yeast. It was a great deal of fun, and very interesting.

An absolute barnstormer from @elusivebrewing.com. A classic black IPA. Roasty malt and wonderful dank hoppy bitterness. The recipe’s been improved but generally why change what works.

For this Oktoberfest opening day, I'm not in Berlin as usual, so I'm having an @elusivebrewing.com beer: Shibuya (4.5%), hopped with Mosaic & Krush. It's very good!
