To lose one bottle in a weekend may be regarded as a misfortune, to lose two looks like carelessness. A #TumblerClub #BottleKill of @SpiritofBrum Single Pot Still Inaugural Release. Cheers all.

Thank you to everyone who joined our day of whisky fun. Fantastic brands, sharing their passion and delicious whisky. And most importantly an amazing crowd, seeing everyone enjoying themselves makes me so happy. In a few days I'll start planning next year, so keep an eye out.

Great day! St Alban's showed us a lot of love 💓🥃🌾

See you there! #Colmore #Birmingham

Some WILD tweets going around. For the love of fuck, you’re not voting in a general election tomorrow - local councillors are not MPs. You’re not voting to get rid of a PM/party nationally. Vote on LOCAL issues not party pack mentality or this city will be even more fucked.

Birmingham local elections are at risk of handing the levers of power to racists, bigots, grifters and conmen. Few of the mainstream parties have covered themselves in glory here but please, on Thursday, hold yr nose and vote to keep extremists out of Birmingham Council House

The West Midlands is having "a bit of a do" and Brum-born street food juggernaut @DigbethDiner is your host. Their Summer Tour ‘26 is back on the road, packing out 25 dates across 24 Midlands locations with a travelling cast of street food heavy-hitters, cold drinks, and just enough bassline to make a stately home blush. It all kicks off in suitably dramatic fashion at the Black Country Living Museum on April 24, where 11 traders, DJs, and a steady flow of craft beer, fizz and cocktails set the tone. From there, it’s a whistle-stop tour of some of the region’s most picturesque backdrops — think Highbury Hall, Blakesley Hall, Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens and beyond — each one temporarily transformed into a street food playground. The line-up reads like a Top Trumps of Midlands street eats: Amore, Flying Cows, Patty Freaks, Disco Fries and Urban Cheesecake all making welcome returns, alongside newer names like Smokey Joe’s and Absolute Melt (great name) slotting into the rotation. There’s also space for the next wave, with incubator traders Steakbites, Hottodoggu and The Streatery stepping up to the big leagues. A Bank Holiday stop at Highbury Hall on May 24 brings things firmly back to Brum, with Hare & Hounds adding grassroots music energy into the mix — a long-overdue return, and likely a lively one. Fresh off the success of Dockworks Waterfront in Brierley Hill, DDC aren’t so much expanding as gently taking over. Same formula, just bigger, louder, and somehow even hungrier.  Tickets: skiddle.com/g/digbeth-dining…
