Bristol Beer Factory Tap Takeover Tiny Rebel Newport
A rainy start as you would expect in Newport. Getting there early to get some pre opening (11:00) training in. Well, at 08:10 there was cleaning going on at Tiny Rebel’s Newport Bar but no sign of any Bristol Beer Factory Ales. So onward to The John Wallace Linton for some training.

Raisin Saddles at Weird Dad Taproom
I met Mr Weird Dad, not weird at all. We talked Beer, specifically Greek IPAs. Which is rather novel. Excellent Beer naming and so Autumnal weather outside. It was good times.
The 4K Emergency Beano
A late start Emergency Beano after booking a Gloucester Oktoberfest and a GooglePixel 6a. Two away from Four Thousand Untappd Uniques. Starting in the Pen and Wig (Newport) and plus one and on cask to boot. The 4K was in Tiny Rebel’s Newport Bar, the corner by the bar and with a Triple Tropica, weighing in at 10% ABV, which I though was fitting. Moving on to try out Weird Day’s Taproom. It started to gently rain, which I thought was a good sign, post Amber Heat Alert. With it only being 15 minutes from the centre of town, it’s a hidden gem. Friendly staff, a great selection of beers, live Untappd and FTTC WiFi. If only it could open at 10:00 instead of 14:00. Revisit planned.
