This year asked questions, tested our pace,
A challenging road, but one full of grace.
Long days, late nights, the graft never small,
Yet moments of pride made it worth it all.
We brewed with belief, with care and with heart,
Never chasing awards, just doing our part.
So to be recognised this year came as a surprise,
A moment of thanks that filled us with pride.
Named Berkshire’s Best Food & Drink Producer this year,
Was something we welcomed with quiet good cheer.
A shared achievement, earned side by side,
With Proper Kitchen, a team effort, and one felt with pride.
Hocus Pocus took Gold, Ferryman’s Silver too,
At the SIBA Indie Awards, a real honour, and true.
Not trophies we chased, but moments to say,
Thank you to all who’ve supported the way.
Along the way, new specials found their place,
Welcomed with warmth, curiosity, and grace.
Each pint poured, each glass raised high,
Reminded us why we still always try.
Our events brought life, from summer’s warm cheer,
To Oktoberfest laughter and Christmas good beer.
Markets, music, and festive delight,
Moments we’ll carry into many a night.
To the pubs who backed us, through thick and through thin,
Your support and belief helped us all win.
From the Highwayman, Baskerville, Allied Arms too,
And so many more, we’re truly grateful to you.
And to every customer, loyal, kind, and true,
We honestly couldn’t do this without you.
Your support means more than words can convey,
It carries us forward, day after day.
You back what we do, you believe, you show up,
Whether sharing a moment or raising a cup.
This brewery stands because you are near,
Thank you, truly, for being with us each year.
Hospitality’s tough, that much is clear,
But we’re lucky to stand with supporters so dear.
So we’ll keep pushing forward, working hard every day,
With exciting plans waiting just over the way.
We wish you a Christmas filled with warmth and good cheer,
With family, friends, and a pint held near.
From all of us here, with thanks ever true,
Merry Christmas, this one is for you.
