Spring Newsletter 2025 continued

 It seems that the printed page is making a bit of a comeback, rather like vinyl LP’s I suppose. The on-line industry news portal ‘Beer Today’ plans a 24 page tabloid newspaper to be published bi-monthly from February. The cost for a one year subscription (including postage) is £18. Are you listening CAMRA ?


 Ow Much? The price of a stein of beer at the 2023 Munich Oktoberfest was 14.90 euros (that’s £7.28 a pint and most of it is froth)


 Trips: following on from the AGM straw poll, the social sub-committee are looking at Halifax, Buxton, Chorley, Green Duck, Coventry, Wolverhampton, Codsall & Oakengates and maybe Bridgnorth (oh! and somewhere new) Will let you know what’s possible soon.

I bought her a bathroom scale !
