Swill @ 30 is a science fiction fanzine by Neil Jamieson-Williams.

Swill @ 30 is a revival of Jamieson-Williams' earlier fanzine Swill published by VileFen Press, with co-editors Lester Rainsford and Andrew Hoyt, first in Toronto, Ontario, and then in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in 1981. Six issues of the original title appeared. It was revived in 2001 for an online version, which was issue 7.

Swill@30 (Swill #8) was published in Spring 2011. In this new incarnation, Jamieson-Williams examines his motivations for the original Swill, and its revival. He declares he is interested in a sociological and anthropological study of science fiction fandom. Essays in this issue iclude "All About Swill", "Editoral: The Spirit of Swill", "Pissing on a Pile of Old Amazings: Eaison d'Jtre" and "Flogging a Dead Trekkie: Changes" and a detourned poster by Jamieson-Williams for Contario.

Issue 9 appeared in the Summer of 2011, with essays by the editor and letters from Taral Wayne (DNQ) and Lloyd Penney (Torus.
