Hello and welcome to the July 2018 issue of Venue Insight Magazine, THE MUST HAVE publication for the UK hospitality industry.
The awesome weather is showing no signs of slowing down. It’s so nice to experience a proper start the summer in the UK and seeing pub, bar and restaurant gardens bursting at the seams is a sight for sore eyes.
This means that beer garden season is truly upon us. However, ‘beer garden’ by name doesn’t need to mean ‘beer only’. Mark Roberts at Lanchester Wines shares their top tips for refreshing wines this summer. Welcome to the ‘wine garden’
Our cover star this month are Pocketful of Stones – a unique West Country distiller with a passion for Absinthe, Gin and everything in between. Owner, Shaun Bebington chats all things Absinthe and love for the industry.
This month also features the first of a new column, adding another string to our already invigorating hospitality bow. In association with Fireball, we provide a proper ‘Venue Insight’ into some of our favourite live music venues across the UK. Come with us as we delve into all things events, music and live entertainment at South London’s up and coming iconic music venue – the New Cross Inn.
Like beer? Enjoy writing? The search is on for the best writing about beer and pubs, as the British Guild of Beer Writers opens its annual awards, offering a total prize fund of £11,000 to the winning journalists, broadcasters, bloggers and other communicators.
We take you into the high season jam packed with insight and ideas around products, lifestyle, new trends, events, tech and cutting edge design to really breathe life into your establishment and keep it where it needs to be.
Cheers
