Jim Beam Honey pop-up beehive
Written by Spoonfed | Thu, 3/05/12 – 12:24 | Beery Fun, Food & Drink, general | No Comment

Jim Beam 1

If you were anywhere near Liverpool Street Station towards the end last week you may have wondered what on earth was going on. Round the back of the station in Broadgate Arena – that circular bit of open space that now and then plays host to an ice rink – appeared, as if from nowhere, a huge beehive.

Jim Beam 3

On Thursday and Friday, the beehive came alive, packed with people enjoying the taste of Jim Beam Honey – a brand new honey-infused bourbon from one of the oldest makers in the world. Served on the rocks as well as in a refreshing apple juice cocktail, the new product went down a treat with the assembled throngs.

Jim Beam 2

Not content with free drinks however, Jim Beam went that extra mile: barmen were dressed in beekeepers outfits, whilst overhead acrobats and trapeze artists kept everyone entertained. No doubt about it, there was a real buzz about the place (sorry…)

For those of you who missed out, Jim Beam Honey is hitting shops and bars in London right now!

Win a bottle of Jim Beam Honey.

Friday lunch with Benito’s Hat

Last Friday we had a rather special lunch here in Spoonfed Towers. Instead of the usual bland and overpriced supermarket sandwich, gobbled down at our desks, the editorial team were instead treated to some rather …

Planet Earth Live at The Barbican

I blame whoever let me watch Titanic when I was 12 for the association I make between classical music and impending doom. A memory of the cheerful quartet who provide a soundtrack to the sinking …

Precious Life at UK Jewish Film Festival

From its sentimental title to its emotional director, Precious Life carries its sensibility on the surface from the start. Given that its about a baby in a war zone, how could it not?

Mistaking anal pedantry for wit is a common problem in a lot of stand-up comedy at the moment. I think it’s this that annoys me so much about Josh Widdicombe’s new Edinburgh show.

There’s a moment in Phil Nichol’s show where he asks if there are any reviewers in. I cowardly choose to keep my mouth shut, mainly out of guilt, as Nichol comes across as a …
