Early mash-ins, hands-on brewing, talks, workshops, great food, great cake...and most importantly, brill women coming together to learn/connect & create.

As #IWD approaches (8 March), we’re proud to share that over the past couple of weeks some of our Nag’s Head gals have been out in the wider brewing world - learning, collaborating, and helping brew beers rooted in belonging. 💜

Monday, but make it indulgent. 🍰🍫🍺

Dessert-leaning cask & keg treats pouring today: rich stouts, warming reds, and cosy sippers.

Because Mondays deserve nice things too. 🥰

Plenty of others. Taplist always live on website & Untappd!
