We’re thrilled to announce our new partnership with The Culpeper Family Hospitality Group! This partnership isn’t just about pouring beer at new venues - it’s about two brands coming together with a shared commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and pushing the boundaries of what hospitality can be. As pioneers of mid-strength beer, Small Beer is so proud to align with those that share our vision for a more mindful and innovative future. Megan, our North and East London Sales Manager, put it best: "Together, we’re combining our passion for sustainability and community to make a meaningful impact—one pint, one meal, one rooftop, one brewery at a time. This partnership is more than just a business venture; it’s about using hospitality as a force for good. We believe in creating experiences that not only delight our consumers but also contribute to a better, more sustainable future." We’re excited to be part of this journey with the Culpeper Family, a brand that mirrors our values and vision for what hospitality can represent today. Cheers to more Big Thinking!!! #Partnership #TheCulpeperFamily #SmallBeer #Launch #Sustainability #HospitalityWithPurpose #thinkbig

Small Beer at All Points East: A Festival Experience with a Difference This past weekend, Small Beer Lager was poured across the bars at All Points East, and it wasn’t just another festival beverage option—it was a glimpse into the future of drinking. Why does this matter? At Small Beer, we’re committed to redefining what it means to enjoy a drink, especially in environments where the tendency to overindulge is high. Our Lager, with its crisp, refreshing taste and mid-strength ABV, offered festival-goers a chance to savour the moment without compromising their well-being. 🌟 Our Commitment to Balance: Mid-Strength, Maximum Enjoyment: With an ABV of just 2.1%, Small Beer Lager is designed for those who want to be part of every moment, from the first act to the final encore, without feeling the effects the next day. It’s about enjoying great music, great company, and great beer—responsibly. 🌟 Sustainable Brewing: Our presence at All Points East wasn’t just about serving beer; it was about showcasing a brewing process that’s as mindful of the environment as it is of your experience. As the UK’s only B Corp-certified brewery, we’re leading the way in sustainable brewing, ensuring that every pint of Small Beer is as good for the planet as it is for you. 🌟 A New Approach to Socialising: Festivals are about connection—sharing experiences with friends, meeting new people, and creating memories. Small Beer Lager was the perfect partner for those moments, offering a drink that complements the day without weighing it down. One festival-goer summed it up perfectly: "All Points East was a magic day. Loved watching Loyle Carner’s set with a Small Beer in hand, knowing there’d be no hangover waiting. The perfect festival, from start to finish." We’re proud to be part of a movement that’s changing the way people think about drinking. Small Beer is more than just a beer—it’s designed to meet the demands of modern life and a choice for those who want to enjoy it all. With thanks to Peppermint Bars & Events for #ThinkingBig with us. Always a pleasure working with you. #allpointseast #outdoorevents #summerfestivals #festivalbeverages

The Future of Drinking: Fresh Insights from YouGov The world of drinking is evolving, and recent insights from a YouGov survey conducted in June 2024 resonate deeply with us at Small Beer. This study highlights significant shifts in consumer attitudes and behaviours, aligning with our mission and the beers we craft. Today’s drinkers are becoming more mindful, balancing the joy of social drinking with a keen awareness of their well-being. The survey revealed a clear trend towards mid-strength beers, with 37% of adults aged 25-55+ preferring beers with 2-3% alcohol content. This shift signifies a desire for moderation - enjoying the moment without the excess. We’ve always championed this balance at Small Beer. Our mid-strength beers are crafted to offer full flavour and satisfaction without compromising health or productivity. The growing preference for these beers underscores the importance of our mission: to provide a great drinking experience that fits seamlessly into modern life. This trend isn’t just about health; it’s about enhancing the quality of social interactions. The survey also indicated that while people are cutting back on alcohol to avoid negative impacts, they still value their social time with a good drink in hand. Our beers are designed to meet this exact need - delivering all of the great beer drinking enjoyment without the downsides. At Small Beer, we’re proud to champion this evolving landscape, offering a solution that aligns with contemporary consumer needs. Our commitment to quality, moderation, and mindful drinking reflects the future of drinking, where enjoyment and well-being go hand in hand. Big thinkers deserve Small Beer. #survey #marketresearch #data #poll #YouGov #consumerinsight #industrydata

We're thrilled to share an exciting expansion in collaboration with Waitrose & Partners who are exclusively launching bottles of our Small Beer Stout across 200 stores from late-May; front-footing the shift in consumer drinking behaviours as they further double-down on the demand for mid-strength. Jourdan Gabbini, Beer & Cider Buyer at Waitrose, said: "Given the growth of stout as a beer style in the market, for me, Small Beer is the perfect NPD as it helps to address increased customer demand at the same time as supporting moderation, which we know is something on customers minds, whilst offering genuine differentiation that meets an unmet customer need state in both Waitrose and the wider market." Small Beer Stout is a beautifully-balanced example of the style, brewed to our signature mid-strength ABV; it is packed with rich coffee, dark chocolate and toasted notes from the West Country chocolate and black malt. Waitrose is also introducing Small Beer Pale in a new six-pack format. Our Small Beer Pale has been carried on shelf as a single unit since Summer 2020 with the increase into multipack further showcasing its success on shelf and recognising a loyal and rapidly growing fanbase who are keen to purchase Small Beer in larger quantities, said James Grundy. Furthermore, distribution of our Small Beer Lager will be expanded from 160 to over 200 Waitrose stores, making it even more accessible to consumers across the UK. We would like to thank the Waitrose team for continuing to front-foot this most exciting of categories, for supporting independent SME's and for celebrating through action, the benefit that carrying a mid-strength proposition on their shelves brings to them as a business and to the customer shopping their shelves.
