I’ve not really spoken about the BrewDog situation yet because honestly, I’m just a bit over them. Perennially bored of the headline-hogging and resultant pile on when there are infinitely more interesting beer stories out there that continue to go uncovered.

Sgt Peppers album cover consisting of things that only made it because of immigration in to the UK, either immigrants themselves, the children of or as a result of someone else coming here.
