The Best Beers for Your Farmers' Market Haul The delicious simplicity of the summer harvest at your local Farmers' Market makes for a great opportunity to get back to basics with beer. Our Beer Sommelier, Maggie Cubbler, offers her favourite beers to go along with nature's best this season. I love taking a wander around the Farmers' Market. The colours are so vibrant and all the veg, fruit, meat and even the in-season game are in their peak condition. The piles of beautifully red tomatoes, lush greens and fresh-caught fish inspire me to get back to the basics of food and beer to appreciate them in the form they were meant to be in. If you, too, are excited to eat a peach for the sake of eating a peach--without any fuss--here are some of my favourite beers that will go along perfectly with the best that the deep summer offers. Artichoke: Birra del Borgo My Antonia

Ask someone down the pub for the reasons behind Britain’s recent Beer revival, and you’re guaranteed all sorts of different explanations. In 2017 the number of UK breweries passed the 2000 mark, which puts us well ahead of European neighbours. Most will have a reasonable argument for why, but you can bet your double-dry hopped DIPA that very few of them would mention Gordon Brown, ex-PM and former Chancellor of the Exchequer.
