Serving science to thirsty minds. Not limited to your usual pint at the local pub, we deliver science stories of all sizes and flavours. We aim to knock down stereotypes, build science appreciation and highlight the amazing science brewing in your own backyard.

As self-confessed science enthusiasts, we enjoy talking about science with everyone. We want to be the spark that ignites inspiration in people of any background to talk passionately about science.
