In the autumn of 2023, we passed one of the beers we brew under the alias of ‘Typeset Attack’ to Lloyd at Crich Brew Co to get his feedback. A Belgian Witbeer with Earl Grey was the beer and the feedback was great and we were asked if we fancied brewing it as a collab on their commercial brew kit. After some back and forth doing recipe design over Whatsapp the day came to brew the beer, at the end of July 2024.

This is the story in photos of that brew day.
