Bière de Miel

3/5. Light, refreshing and floral. A beer full of the joys of spring.

Caracole Saxo

3/5. Dark gold and just a little cloudy. Lightly floral scent and a touch of something spicy. Very smooth.

A certain thirtysomething

It feels no different to any other year now I’m turning thirty. Yet.

Who you gonna call?

Hello you, I'm Mike Padgett. I'm not a Princeton curator, Knoxville mayoral candidate, Kentuckian pastor or Arizona journalist, I just share the same name. In fact, I am a consultant working in user experience and information design.

I also enjoy travel, concerts, films and walking.

I'm originally from Yorkshire, England but nowadays I live in Belgium. My current favourite Belgian beer is Black Albert.

Shameless self-promotion
