🍻 Two summer socials coming up 🍻

This Sat we're heading off on buses & trains to visit a gang of Castle Rock Brewery pubs outside of the city on a quest to tick them off for a free Castle Rock t-shirt πŸ‘• We could just buy one, but where's the fun in that!? Meet at Nottingham train station to join us πŸš†

Then in a couple of weeks, we're doing an outside bottle share in the park 🍻 Led by one of our resident Beer Sommeliers you'll be learning while you're drinking πŸ€“

DM us if you'd like final details to join in. Cheers

Our first bar at Nottingham Craft Beer Festival has done an amazing thing - raised an amazing Β£545 for our 2026 charity partner Central Women's Aid πŸ™ŒπŸ’ͺ🍻

Eva at Central Women’s Aid said "We are very grateful for the support in both fundraising and awareness raising so that more women can find our services. The funds raised will help Central Women's Aid continue providing vital support, safety, and specialist services to women and children affected by domestic abuse."

A massive thank you to everyone who bought a beer, dropped money into the collection box or joined a charity beer tasting - our support for what we did was fantastic.

And a huge thank you to the folks running the festival for providing this space to do our charity thing πŸ™Œ

If you missed the festival or really enjoyed the beers - there's some crackers! - they are pouring once again from Wednesday 8th across two of our favourite venues The Abdication Micropub & The Barrel Drop 🍻 See you there!

A big Thankyou to No Half Measures Collective who have continued to support us by raising awareness of our services and fundraising for us at local events. We are very grateful for your continued support and love hearing about the festivals and work you do to uplift and empower women in your industry!

Thankyou to everyone who donated or took the time to find out more about our charity.

Next weekend we are back at Nottingham Craft Beer Festival in our ace corner with a load of new things going on!

We are very excited to bring you a No Half Measures Collective bar this year. Shining a spotlight on new, small and not-usually-seen-at-this-festival women-led breweries, we’ll have an ace selection pouring across the sessions to delight your taste buds. Check back early next week for a preview of the breweries and beers.

And we are chuffed to be partnering with the It's in Nottingham Safe Space scheme to provide a designated Safe Space for the festival. If you find you need to take some time out of the festival or something untoward occurs, come to our stand, where there will be Safe Space trained volunteers and a quiet area away from the hubbub to sort things out. We’ll also have lots of info about the Safe Space scheme - what it is, Safe Space venues across the city and how you can support the scheme.

And if you haven’t already bagged your ticket, get one here! https://tinyurl.com/ncbf26tkts
