Despite lockdown procedures meaning the closing of all pubs, bars and restaurants, the business has been able to continue growing, with it's main successes being through online retail and packaging business.

Tom Lucas, West Berkshire Brewery managing director said: “The past few months have been extremely tough for everyone, ourselves included.

"Despite these challenging times, we have been able to trade through and some parts of our business are in significant growth, which is testament to the extensive work we have completed in the past couple of years to

establish a much bigger and multi-faceted business, which has positioned us well to weather the current storm.

"We are in a very positive place and ready to continue accelerating our business in the months and years ahead.”

The business has said that once the subscription boxes have been launched, expected to be available in the next few months, a donation will be made to NHS Charities Together with every subscription sold.

"It has been an absolute pleasure to work with the team and be a part of the journey over the past seven years, but this really is only the beginning.

"We are opening up once more to offer beer lovers and craft-brewing enthusiasts with a thirst for fantastic breweries a chance to join us and become a part of this extraordinary story."
