    Cravendale milk.

    The cynic in me says that the majority of people getting themselves whipped up over this don't have the slightest idea what it is they're worried about. All seems very "anti-green agenda" when I see the sources of the confected outrage. Do we not trust our farmers this week?

    Cravendale milk.

    Well quite, but it is rather amusing that people seem to get themselves all hot under the collar over something that appears to be safe, vs ingesting an actual poison (alcohol) in large quantities. It reminds of an old colleague of mine who used to go on and on about the alleged connection...

    Cravendale milk.

    I have to laugh at the the number of people on social media losing their **** over this. People who I know for a fact binge drink, and snort white powder of questionable origin and content each weekend. But aye, you worry about this. The internet has made everyone an expert.

    Electric cars.

    There will be a few of the legacy carmakers that will disappear because they're unable to keep up. Think of all the British car companies that used to exist. Bit early to be predicting VW's demise though.

    Overflow while kegging

    As a sanitiser?

    Shame. Brew York are normally excellent.

    Utopian are fantastic. Refreshing to see a British brewery focus solely on lager styles.

    The 'Recommend me a TV series' thread

    Yeah, Andor was very very good. Really looking forward to the second series coming out, and watching series 1 and 2, then finishing with Rogue One.

    I remember having the Maui Coconut Porter a few times about 13/14 years ago and was also blown away with it. Unfortunately don't see as much US beer here as you did in those days. I suppose given the explosion of smaller breweries here, the need/demand to import has reduced.

    Gregg Wallace hits out at 'handful' of accusers

    Even in a court of law, definitive proof isn't always necessary. If a pattern of behaviour has been corroborated by 13 people so far, then I think it's fair to say that there could be something worth looking at. The BBC clearly think so now too. Stuff like this should always be thoroughly...

    Gregg Wallace hits out at 'handful' of accusers

    There might never be proof. What there may be is an overwhelming body of evidence that mounts up. At what number do you start listening and believing those that come forward?

    Gregg Wallace hits out at 'handful' of accusers

    I think you're making the assumption that because only 13 made a complaint, that only 13 found his behaviour objectionable. Given the amount of coverage the story has gotten, I can't blame people for not coming forward.

    I completely agree.

    Gregg Wallace hits out at 'handful' of accusers

    Of course it's their duty of care. Let's not pretend that this is a BBC only issue though. It's seen throughout the industry, from Philip Schofield to Harvey Weinstein. It's not just an issue within entertainment either. Look at any industry with a power dynamic, and you'll find abuses of that...

    There are some excellent Spanish breweries out there. Soma, Basqueland and Garage spring to mind.

    Gregg Wallace hits out at 'handful' of accusers

    You mean that people shouldn't jump to conclusions until all the facts are established? It'll never catch on.

    Very nice. Mrs DD2 has got me one of the Trembling Madness advent calendars the last few years. Absolutely love it. Dog likes sticking his snout through the window each morning too.

    Hop Bongs - Are they worth it?

    And they are excellent.

    Electric cars.

    Exactly. Barely any battery is used when the car isn't moving.
