BIG NEWS!!!! We are delighted to finally reveal that The Clyde Rooms @EdmistonHouse will be the home of INDIE BEER SCOTLAND 2023!
This superb new events venue has loads of space (indoor and outdoor), modern facilities, and superb transport links including a subway station nearby
Always great to visit micro breweries and this one is not only in my constituency but is the multi award winning @innerbaybrewery - fantastic product, superb packaging and a real passion from the owner/brewer, Kate Russell. Try it…you won’t be disappointed! #beer
.@FyneJamie@SIBA01 have responded to the opening of @Circ_Scotland registration and revised producer fee for the Scottish DRS - https://t.co/HUSbQsa0Ll
I'm not going to mince words about this one..... DRS in its current format is a risk to the viability of small producers. How can a simple idea be so complex and expensive in its delivery? Concerns raised in this article are only the tip of the iceberg.
Article today by @mgoldenmsp gives a devastating analysis of the impacts of the Scottish DRS scheme including highlighting @SIBA01 concerns - https://t.co/LXA8I3b4gF
An amazing first day of Indie Beer Scotland yesterday and looking forwards to welcoming today’s beer lovers from 11.30!
Tickets must be purchased in advance but will be on sale via the website throughout.
Still lots of unanswered questions today on Scottish DRS but we reckon small brewers will have to find £1.5m to fund it and prices will go up at least 10p plus the 20p deposit - @SIBA01@FyneJamie comment here = https://t.co/nbBmWDBtIK
The roll out of the new labels has started, with the first ones hitting the shelves. These are on some of the larger, 500ml, bottles, new labels on the 330ml bottles to follow later in the year.
We are saying good bye to our iconic crown cap labels. This is to reduce excess packaging and allow the bottles to be recycled at reverse vending machines in the future. While we use up label stocks, there will be a mix of old and new. Either way its the same great beer 🍻
INDIE BEER SCOTLAND is a brand new independent craft beer festival featuring fresh cask and keg beers from Scottish @SIBA01 members, plus cider & spirits from Scotland's best indie producers.
Brewery list and ticket details launching next week!
@hmtreasury@grahamemorris At the Budget the Chancellor announced beer sold in pubs would pay 5% less duty from next year.
But the new rate will only applies to kegs & casks over 40L in size. Independent brewers also use smaller containers, of 20L and 30L. So let's support small brewers and #MakeIt20
