WICKWAR BREWING CO UPHOLDS THE QUENCHING OF THIRST FOR ANOTHER YEAR

The weather was kind to us all over the week-end of May 30th. The crowd was even larger this year than last year and boy were they thirsty. “Wickwar Brewing Co always seems to be able to serve a great pint in the middle of a field” was one comment that I over heard.

We had changed our strategy slightly this year, which meant that it was easier to administer the Wickwar ale and fizzy stuff, not forgetting the well acclaimed ‘Wickwar Screech’ which was asked for by name over and over again. The chant became “Screech for some Screech” and they did. Not forgetting the other quaffable beverage ‘Stagefrieght’ now a firm favourite at Wychwood Music festival.

Brewers of the acclaimed Supreme Champion Winter Beer of Britain 2008, ’Wickwar Brewing Company',  the largest independent brewer in Gloucestershire, have recently announced the appointment of Mike Flavin, as a non executive director.

Mike has over 25 years of experience in the brewing and pub sector, having worked for Grand Met Brewing, Unique Pub Company and most recently held the board position of Operations Director at Avebury Taverns, prior to its successful sale to Punch Taverns in 2005.

Mike joins Wickwar at a time when the fast growing company is undergoing a strategic review of its operations as it positions itself for further growth.
