Brewery and twitter account. Leith, laugh, love. It’s probably just a joke.
Apologies for the lack of content on here recently, been busy selling a vocoder to the Strokes.
Based on what they've been posting over the last 24 hours it's beginning to look like sending 17 cases of free beer to every UK journalist was something of a mistake.
This Friday we're off to White Hag's Hagstravaganza again, which gives us the excuse to bring up the time we inadvertently drew the ire of turboprop twitter.
Sad to announce we are no longer the Official Beer Partner of the 2030 Fifa World Cup after Concacaf threatened to boycott due to our participation.

First it was cones on statues and now it’s buildings mysteriously burning down for tax reasons. The Weegification of Edinburgh must be stopped.
Yep, sure is tough in the old brewing world these days. Still, good job we don't also have to compete with multi multi millionaire celebrities who could swim in a pool of their money like Scrooge McDuck launching beer brands just because they can.
Wonder if Spain might try something different in extra time and move from a possession based game to trying to catch Argentina out on the counter. Nobody expects the Spanish in transition.
Still, good that the World Cup Final is offering us a rare chance to see Romesh Ranganathan on our screens.

At least now the American razzmatazz is out of the way, we can all look forward to a quiet 15 minute long half-time period with nothing but 3 ex-pros having a wee look back at some of the first half’s key incidents.

You might look at this opening ceremony and conclude Americans can’t do anything right but then remember that they also bought Brewdog and yes it’s really starting to look like they can’t do anything right.

Commiserations to our friends and family over the border in Stockbridge tonight.
It would be easy to be churlish as a Leith brewery on a day like this but as we’ve got family and friends down in Edinburgh we’d like to wish the best of luck to the England team.
Apologies for the lack of content on here recently, we got invited to a party with Steve Carell and David Beckham and now they’re making us just like stand behind the sofa while they watch the football. Thierry Henry’s here too.

The main reason we stopped fining our beers back in 2014 is so that whenever we see Farage gurning over a pint of something crystal clear we can be reasonably certain it isn’t one of ours.
The bigger question is what was Humphrey Smith doing with our phone in a pub in the first place?
