Award-winning craft brewery, Dig Brew Co (Digbeth, Birmingham) have launched a new online shop which will provide deliveries serving customers initially in Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Walsall, Wolverhampton and Worcestershire.
As part of its expansion, the two-year-old brewery has already started delivering a range of 12 freshly brewed beers comprising a lager, three pale ales, three IPAs, a wheat ale, fruit smoothie sour, fruited sour ale, Baltic porter and their debut Imperial Stout.
The brewery’s new Imperial Stout – Eddie Fights Judge Doom – is the first of its beers to be launched via the secure contact-free ordering and delivery service.
Dig Brew founder, Oliver Webb and head brewer, Andy Whyte have named the full-bodied dark beer from a scene in the popular 1989 comic strip film, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, in which hard-boiled detective Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins) faces off against cartoon villain Judge Doom.
The 10.1% Imperial Stout has been in production since November 2019 using a complex malt bill with additional muscovado, demerara and lactose sugars, along with a blend of four yeast strains, all cold-conditioned over Madagascan vanilla pods and cacao nibs.
“Our debut Imperial Stout has revolutionised our understanding of recipe design. With a flavour profile of sticky toffee pudding, raisins and vanilla, the beer oozes richness and elegance – it’s a must try.
“To help our customers through the ongoing UK lockdown, we will produce a fresh supply week by week that can be ordered through our new online shop.”
– Oliver Webb (Founder, Dig Brew Co)
Dig Brew Co’s beers – priced from £3.20 per 330ml bottle with discounts of up to 20% on bulk orders – can be ordered singularly or in pick-and-mix packs of six and 12 bottles through their new online shop.
