Was Mad Nads suspended when she went on it ?

I've had old kegs with beer stone deposits on the bottom . A few drops of neat starsan lifts them in seconds . Worth a try if alkaline cleaners are not shifting it. That or a longer soak with an acidic solution like citric acid or vinegar

While I'm sure as in most wars there was some Irish involvement, I think on this occasion, they were on Harold's side rather than William's https://ansionnachfionn.com/2016/10/14/the-battle-of-hastings-and-the-irish-exile-of-the-english-princes/

Worth noting for anyone planning to travel with pets , that since Brexit passports are now also checked on the UK side travelling to France . (Previously they were only checked when returning from France in Calais) Rabies boosters need to be administered at least three weeks before travelling ...

Innocent until proven guilty shouldn't need an explanation, "avoids fine" suggests guilty until proven innocent , is how I read it . I generally prefer the guardian as a UK source of news info , but this reads like something from the daily mail

Avoids fine by being innocent, crazy stuff

From 24m ago 12.33 Starmer avoids fine as Durham police say 'no case to answer' and no fines being issued Durham police are not fining anyone over beergate, they have announced. That means Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner are not being fined - and won’t have to resign (which they promised they...

I also took this exam a long while ago, it was a pathway to studying for the full AME (now called diploma I think) within the brewery . I remember that a good few of the multiple choice questions were dubious enough, in that there were a number of right answers , just that one was more right...

I was taken on a trip /junket from the brewery to visit Pirelli tyres in Carlisle a good few years ago as part of a project on World Class Manufacturing . One of the tyre makers on the shop floor, had noticed a simpler way to change over the tyre machine . This saved let's say, half the time it...

I was age ID'd in Wallmart much to my kids in their 20s delight (I'm in my 60s ). The cashier wasn't trusted enough to make the call , and she had to input my ID number,from my photo ID, before she could put the beer purchase through the till. On a recent holiday I went into millers ale House...

The bridge is always the better option as with my foreign reg plate it free 😜

I've pulled the trigger on the Saturday , so here's hoping it'll work out, at the end of the day it's just a couple of hours difference in a long journey an so won't really impact . One thing I hadn't factored in was accomodation in Calais . Normally it's never an issue , I usially book an Ibis...

Any idea if it was the first brew or second brew which has the issues . I've marked my identical FVs as FV1 and FV2 and carry it in the notes on beersmith as to which one I'm using , for ease of fault finding. PS I've also labelled my Cornie kegs, which is logged also

Sorry I'd double posted while trying to edit

I took the family to a shooting range in Florida while in holiday . On the way out, similar to Disney and Universal theme park rides , you had to exit through their retail store. We stopped and were amazed at the range of weapons being sold. When I asked about any gun, the stock answer was, "In...
