Something a bit special for #tryanuary Swiss brewery Echec & Malt will be pouring 3 of their beers for us ahead of their appearance at @anarchybrewco Friends Of Anarchy Beer Fest on the 25th Jan. I reckon this is a first for Echec & Malt in the UK and our first international takeover so get yourselves down next Friday 24th Upside Down, IPA 6% Copains Comme Cochons, DIPA 7%, (Collab with Anarchy & Black Pig) Souvenir, imperial Stout 11%

Hope you’re all having a merry Christmas Eve! Remember we’re open till 6 today, closed tomorrow, and open again 12-6 Boxing Day!

Launching Tomorrow - Heinz Heinz is one of our longest standing regulars, mainstay of the Newcastle beer scene and a good friend. Unfortunately last year he was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. We've come up with a beer with our neighbours @stubrewncl which will be on throughout Jan, and we’ll be donating £1 from every pint to @prostatecanceruk So please come along tomorrow night and try this rich fruit cake stout - plus we have a one off Irish cream version as well!
