Hazy. Juicy. Cask. NZ. Pale. 😋 Phantasm is made from Marlborough New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc grape skins, rich in Thiol precursors, it enhances and bolsters strong tropical fruit aromas during the fermentation process. #ithinkittastesfantastic #microbrewery

Genuinely don't get brewer's beef with seasonal beers. Our pumpkin and Christmas beers were our fastest pre-selling beers of the year to trade. Faster than the Double Oregon Trilogy. Drinkers like seasonal beers. Give them what they want.

Petition for pubs to bring back these glasses.

Brewday is on! Red Ale destined to be my entry into The Queen Inn // Pub & Microbrewery #homebrew competition...if all goes well.

Our Festival Beers Preview: We will have beers locally from The Queen Inn // Pub & Microbrewery, beers from Hampshire Flack Manor Triple fff Brewery, @Vibranttaproom Elusive Brewing in Berkshire, Monkey Brewhouse in Lymington and as far afield as Brew York in Yorkshire and Fyne Ales in Scotland

Just a reminder that £2 of every £10 you spend in hospitality goes straight to HMRC that’s before the venue has paid for the product, the staff to serve it, the rent on the venues to serve it in, the gas/ electricity to cook it…it’s endless. #CUTVAT

'You don't hear when a pub closes, you feel it.' With a local closing every day, Tom Swarbrick warns that this country is 'lost' if the pub dies.

Earlier start, 7.30pm, this month for our branch meeting at The Queen Inn, Winchester, Tuesday 12th of August. The Queen Inn // Pub & Microbrewery

Pint prices are going up and pubs are under pressure. The Government’s ‘stealth tax’ on hospitality will deal even more damage. We need an emergency hospitality VAT cut now.
