Tesco partners with Co Derry brewery to spotlight standout locally made beer
Heaney Brewery's Irish Pale has been selected by the supermarket giant for its flavour and match-day drinkability
Tesco NI has partnered with six Northern Ireland breweries and cider producers, including one in Co Derry, to spotlight standout locally made beers and ciders to enjoy during the Six Nations tournament.
Two local favourites have been selected for their flavour and match-day drinkability from Bellaghy's Heaney Brewery. Their Irish Pale is the go-to pick for co-owner Suzanne McCay.
Other brews selected for the 'Six drinks for Six Nations' are Maggies Leap (Whitewater Brewery), Carsons Crisp Cider (Armagh Cider Company), Pressure to Pick (Our Brewery), Farmageddon Gold 4.2% (Farmageddon Brewing Co) and Blossom Burst Cider (Longmeadow Cider).
Michael Crealey, Lead Packaged Buying Manager at Tesco NI, said: “Supporting our local producers is hugely important to us at Tesco, and we’re incredibly proud to offer customers such a strong range of high-quality drinks produced right here in Northern Ireland. These are local flavours made by local businesses, and every time customers choose them, they’re helping to support jobs, skills and the local economy across Northern Ireland. With the Six Nations bringing people together to enjoy the rugby, it’s a brilliant opportunity to celebrate our local products too.”
