Happy #NationalStoutDay! Today, we raise a pint of Brains Black, our rich and smooth Welsh stout, crafted with deep roasted malts and a hint of dark chocolate. #BrainsBlack #StoutDay #DrinkWelsh #BrainsBrewCrew

One of our regular cask ales: The Rev James from @brainsbrewery is on the bar @VernonArmsL2 Pale brown, it's malt & fruit aroma and flavours dominate the taste. An easy-drinking beer of deceptive strength. ABV 4.5%, £4 pint. A taste of the good life! @LiverpoolCAMRA

We’re excited to be featured by @footprintmedia in a recent article, which recognises Charles Faram for leading the way in sustainability and innovation within British hops. 🌍   It’s a fantastic read, demonstrating the importance of British hops and our efforts with climate-resilient varieties and eco-friendly farming.   For those who are invested in sustainable practices to protect future generations - you can find the full article here: foodservicefootprint.com/bre… 🍃🍻   #BritishBeer #HopInnovation #SustainableFarming #CharlesFaramHops #SupportLocal

Last week was Edinburgh > Glasgow > Manchester > Dudley > Worcester > Malvern > Birmingham > Glasgow > Orkney. Mostly seeing customers and suppliers plus learning about yeast and hops. The highlight was finally making the @CharlesFaram Hop Walk.

Delighted to find @brainsbrewery have recovered from their financial problems & are brewing a big range of beers now sold far beyond Wales. The classics remain core brands. Reverend James the leading ale. Good to see my favourite Dark, & their huge commitment to Cask.

Laurie is off to “big school” on the next leg of his journey in becoming a Guide Dog. He came to us as 10 kg of energy and fun and moves on as 34kg of even more energy and fun. It has been a delight to have him in our family; he will make a fine and loyal companion. #guidedogs – at West Midlands, England

Another great trip 💚 We loved having our AromaFest®️ venture to Scandinavia! #FriendsofFaram
Mike ventured to Scandinavia last week to share his expert knowledge on our #malt, #brewing, and #beer, with malt samples to taste and wort samples to swig at the #NordicSeminars. Our friends at @CharlesFaram were presenting their #AromaFest. See you next time. Skål! 🍻🇩🇰🇸🇪
