Daring turkey parade the week before Thanksgiving in Cambridge, MA today. Watch out delivery people! Turkeys chase them and have even attacked. I’m told they have a WhatsApp group to warn each other as the pack moves.
I saw this on an FB ephemera group and thought of @DrinkMapBook and her lovely book (which I really enjoyed!)
This item is described as: “Pre Prohibition 1887 broadside to vote against owner having a brewery in Maine”
Humbled & thrilled that ‘Drink Maps in Victorian Britain’ has been short listed for the British Guild of Beer Writers beer/pub Book of the Year! Today I’m pairing it with beers from @Orkneybrewery@BodPublishing@UChicagoPress#BGBW24@Britbeerwriters Congrats to all finalists!
Many thanks to our judging panel for all of their hard work this afternoon!
A quick reminder that the #BGBW24 shortlist will be announced tomorrow morning, so don’t forget to head over to our Instagram page at 9am.
