Marc McGuigan, Group MD, Brewing & Distribution, Liberation Group says: “We’re all extremely proud of our brewing teams who, under our excellent head brewer Mike Jordan, have done an amazing job brewing some wonderfully tasteful beers and lagers. They work incredibly hard behind the scenes and haven’t stopped brewing despite lockdowns and other difficulties over the past 18 months.
“These Taste of the West awards pay testament to their dedication, passion and genuine care for everything they do so it’s only fitting they should be recognised at these prestigious awards.”
Taste of the West is the largest independent regional food group in the UK and was established to promote and support fantastic local food and drink from the region – Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Somerset and Wiltshire.
Their aim is to champion food and drink producers in the West Country, as well as all the places that serve and sell them, to prove that when it comes to what you eat and drink, it really is best in the South West. The annual awards scheme is run to ensure high standards are maintained and that local suppliers are recognised for their hard work.
