Cloudwater
One of the most respected breweries in the world, Cloudwater are still mashing and boiling away, and their beers are available for both takeaway and delivery. Independently owned and directed by co-founder Paul Jones, Cloudwater aim to run an ethically conscious, human-centred business – and it seems that their outstanding beers are a direct result of this.
What to order: Cloudwater DIPA (8% ABV 440ml)
Northern Monk
Local brewers Northern Monk have stepped up in our hour of need to deliver their beers to our very thirsty mouths during this emergency. Check their stock list on their Facebook, give them a call and they can deliver locally in the same day. They’re also offering 50% off for NHS staff. Legends.
What to order: If they have it – Origin Gluten Free IPA (5.7% ABV 330ml)
Marble Brewery
Bring a slice of the Marble Arch to your living room with home delivery options from the wonderful team down at Marble Beers. They’re updating what they’ve got available every day on their social channels, but head over to their shop (link below) and get yourself something cold and fizzy direct from brewery to your door.

Alphabet Brewing Company
The always impressive Alphabet have decided to make their local deliveries even better. They’re offering SAME DAY delivery every single day of the week – as long as you order before 4pm that is. Including weekends! It’s FREE for orders over £30 too. You can’t really argue with any of that, especially when the end product is a crate of bloody fit beers on your doorstep.
What to order: Charlie Don’t Surf Session IPA (4.0% ABV 330ml)
Donkeystone Brewing
Located in the lovely picturesque village of Greenfield, if you’re stuck way out in the sticks with only Paul Scholes and sheep for company, make things a bit better with some beers from the excellent Donkeystone Brewing Co.

Well, they’re offering free next-day delivery on booze during these trying times complete with 10% off on orders over £50. Get some crates and get in the garden I say.
