A beer brand created by players from Newcastle Falcons is set for a boost after they struck a deal with a local hospitality firm.
Carl Fearns, Logovi’i Mulipola, Will Welch and Michael Young are the team behind Manuia Beer, a new craft beer brand they have been working on away from the rugby pitch. Their first brew FiaFia Pilsner has, so far, only been available at a select number of single site venues.
But now the team has made a deal which will see the brand stocked by Newcastle-based pub with rooms operator The Inn Collection Group. It will have its first wide-scale distribution in The Inn Collection Group’s properties, with the drink available at its 18 pubs across the North of England and North Wales.
