There's worse jobs....


Picking gorse flowers for our spring collaboration beer with Sue Hayward of Waen brewery, "Bumper to Bumper", is a bit of a mixed bag of a job... it gets me out of the brewery for a while into the country but, even wearing rigger's gloves, the gorse still managed to inflict some nasty holes in my hand!  As you can imagine, some choice words were uttered in the bush's direction on more than one occasion....

Anyhow, here's a few photos of me in action as it were.... and the beer is lovely too, we're brewing another batch this week as the first went so quickly and we're being asked for more!  Result....
