Two fresh cans this week.

Two fresh cans this week.
The latest beer to make a welcome appearance back on the canning line is the mighty Orkney Blast.
One of Rob's original beers, and the first of those we've put into a can, Orkney Blast is named after Orkney's WW Forces' newspaper of the same name. It's a deceivingly drinkable 6.0% strong ale.

First brew of 2025 today.
We did 96 brews in 2024 - two more than 2023.
Confident we’ll beat that number this year.
