    About Me

    My photo
    Jeff Pickthall
    Barrow-in-Furness, Newcastle-upon-Tyne and London, United Kingdom
    If you're reading this you probably know me already. If you don't: My brother and I created and nurtured MICROBAR, a specialist craft beer bar in London which existed 2001-2010. This blog is my spontaneous shoot-from-the-hip observations on beer, its brewers and the places where we drink the glorious stuff. The words don't benefit from much reviewing or editing so please excuse tortured grammar and syntax and the inevitable blatant rambling. I am not, and never have been, a member of CAMRA.
