Country Joe McDonald obituary US singer and songwriter best known for his 1969 Woodstock performance of his anti-war I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-to-Die Rag

www.theguardian.com/music/2026/m... 'Electric music for the mind and body' from 1967 is a fabulous record (and one I still enjoy). The cover is also neat!

'The microbiological quality of draught no- and low-alcohol beers' by Giulia Roselli et al has been published. Its an important paper detailing the poor quality of NoLo beers on draught dispense. Its free/open access and very much worth a read at jib.cibd.org.uk/index.php/ji...

The latest open access Journal of the Institute of Brewing is out at jib.cibd.org.uk/index.php/ji... with papers on sustainability and the use of faba beans in the grist, the variables impacting on hop creep, and two papers on the aroma of whisky (long chain esters and rate of distillation).

📍 Find Thornbridge at The Harrington Arms, Thulston.

They have just launched their house beer, The Harrington Arms, a refreshing Hazy Session IPA. Alongside this, you can enjoy Green Mountain Alcohol Free, plus a rotating Thornbridge cask line, featuring our Year of Beer brews.

The Atom Heart Mother ‘suite’ is magnificent. I remember them playing it at one of the free Hyde Park concerts.

Lots of well meaning noise in the media (hello BBC) about high levels of glycerol in slushies. Surprising then, that even in the publication that's triggered this, glycerol is not quantified in slushies. Mmmmm.

Astonished to see that in 2025 the Civil Service is toying with 'radical changes' with the introduction of performance management. This was the norm in my time at Bass Brewers (1982-2006).
