FRESH BEER Catch up on the latest UK Craft Beer releases. BREWER’S CORNER What’s going on in the world of Craft Beer? TAPROOM REVIEW The TWICB Team visit Little Earth Project in Suffolk. TWICB PODCAST Rob is joined by Peter and Father Mateusz from Mount Saint Bernard Abbey. ISSUE71 SEVENTY ONE JULY 5th 2021 ISSUE 71 - 5 JULY 2021 With England doing so well in the Euros, it was great to see so many pubs and taprooms busy, with everyone having a blast of a time. This fantastic boost to the Hospitality Industry is just what the doctor ordered. In fact it’s a much needed tonic for all of us, and great to enjoy watching live sport again while draining a glass or two with friends. It looks like travel abroad will be open once again to those of us lucky enough to have had two covid jabs and a government announcement is expected soon together with perhaps as many as 20 countries being put on the ‘Green List’. This should enable us to start promoting our Grand Beer Tours once again. Don’t forget to keep checking the promotional pages in our Newsletters for details, and hopefully we’ll see you on one of our awesome trips.
