    Hope

    In this special episode of Beer Here Now, we explore the subject of mental health. Thornbridge Brewery's releasing 'Hope', a beer designed to highlight the issues around mental wellbeing. The launch is in between Suicide Prevention Day and World Mental Health Day. We hear from the brewery's Chief Exec Simon Webster about how the idea came about and what else Thornbridge is doing to highlight the issue. James Creaghan from Derbyshire County Council tells us what they're doing to tackle mental health stigma and what help is available. We also hear from Fay Parrish from the brewery about the launch event itself at Sheffield FC on 5 October, and where we can get a pint of Hope. £10 from every cask and 50p from every pint sold on World Mental Health Day will be donated to North Derbyshire Samaritans. * If you're suffering from mental health issues and would like to find help, please visit https://www.derbyshire.gov.uk/social-health/health-and-wellbeing/mental-health-and-wellbeing/suicide-prevention/suicide-prevention.aspx * To speak to someone anonymously, you can call Samaritans anytime day or night on 116 123.

    Thornbridge Hall Special

    Adam and James report to the brewery to help with brew day... only to find there's a bit of a twist. They spend the day at the original Thornbridge Hall site - where cask beers are still brewed - to get their hands dirty. They also get a tour of the 12 acres of stunning gardens which encircle the hall and learn more about its history and current day use.

    Introducing: Yelamu and Pink Grapefruit Halcyon

    Two new beers - and two beautiful beers! We find all about the new releases available in a Tesco near you right now: Yelamu, a Double IPA collaboration with Magic Rock; and Pink Grapefruit Halcyon, the latest fruity version of the classic Imperial IPA. Adam and James are joined by Thornbridge Field Sales Manager James Buxton and Export Manager James Buchanan to try out the beers. We also get to know Buxton a bit better (and resort to just calling each other by our surnames to avoid James confusion). We have news about Peakender and some tap takeovers in London next week, plus we take a look at the ongoing Thornbridge rebranding project.
