Beer Bantz

All good things come to an end.

We’re truly gutted to have to announce this – as of last night, Tuesday 28th February 2023, we closed the doors to our brewery for the final time.

After nearly six years of brewing some of the highest quality cask ales, a combination of factors such as skyrocketing energy and raw ingredient costs, lower volumes in pubs and unsustainable, market decimating pricing practices by our competitors mean we have had to put the company into voluntary liquidation.

We did some awesome stuff with you, made fantastic beer and had an amazing time along the way. World firsts, innovative thinking, utterly delicious beers, massive fun parties and a positive attitude got us through previous tough times and although we like to
think ourselves of “beer super heroes”, we’re not immortal.

A process of liquidating stock will take place between now and 17th March, with casks going to pubs for the final time and all cans and bottles being sold via BeerDriveThru.com

To all of you that have ever enjoyed any of our beers and to our amazing team who have worked so hard – THANK YOU – it’s truly been an honour sharing a pint and working with you.

Go well fellow beer lovers, may your glass be always full of good beer.

First off, as some people can be a bit snowflakey about this, we want to say that in terms of the industrial action (strikes) that postal workers are undertaking - we understand why, we don't blame you for wanting better, that's cool, in terms of our business, it's still an ass sucking situation for us.

Now, if you've ordered from us recently, please be aware that we've done our bit in the speedy fashion you're used to, delays on deliveries are down to the strike action and any backlog it's causing, we're sorry about that, it properly sucks ass and there's nothing we can do about it. Please carry on ordering, we'll carry on dispatching and once it's been resolved, normal service should resume.

Need it speedily? Just select the "Courier" option at checkout and it'll be with you in jiffy!

In the meantime, anyone wanna go down the pub and wait for it all to blow over?

Either intentionally or unintentionally, let's hear them...

Thank you for your order Carol and another big thank you for smashing the FIVE STAR button for us! Thank you.

Obviously, beer is the best kind of gift there is, but what would be a close second for you?

Have you chuckled like this over a can design you've sent to someone? They make us chuckle!

Some email feedback from Rachel, we were stoked to be able to help her out with a unique gift for her other half, the pleasure was all ours Rachel, thank you so much for choosing us!

Have we missed one? Let us know...

Yes! This is the kinda banter we love!

Ooooh, thank you ever so much, nice to get the recognition and another five stars, THANK YOU ever so much!

Let's see how long we can keep this going for. Whoever has commented before you - which one of our cans would you send them? (First comment has to choose us of course!)

(and drink beer too!)

BOOM! Another five stars, this time from Allison - thank you so much for the rating and for your order

A little motivational post for you today to step up...

Awww thanks Gary, you're making us blush!

We're so lucky to be based where we are.

Our little brewery is based "out in the sticks" - although handily only a few minutes from the motorway. We're blessed with beautiful countryside and surrounded by farmers, rhynes and a ton of green stuff.

Running a brewery comes with it's challenges, as with most jobs and businesses. We have to decide whether those challenges are worth it for the upsides we get to experience too. Sometimes there's difficult decisions to make and times when it all maybe a bit overwhelming, but one thing remains constant - even if the weather changes - where we're based is stunning, and sometimes, a quiet moment to appreciate that is all that's needed to refocus and get back on track.

See, we may have a wicked sense of humour, but deep down, we're just a bunch of softies really 😜

Which celebrity would you send a can to? And which design of course?

Gwan, gwan... tag a friend and waste their time 😂
