Anspach & Hobday have announced the launch of their brand-new 330ml can range available exclusively at Marks & Spencer stores in London and the South East.

Marks & Spencers are adding 330ml cans of The Pale Ale (4.4%), The IPA (6.0%) and The Porter (6.7%) to their existing portfolio and the beers will become available to the public from today (January 4th).

The craft beers are launching with a limited-time offer in every store, with all three cans available for £5.

Anspach & Hobday previously had 330ml bottles available at Marks & Spencer of The Pale Ale, The Porter and The Cream Ale – which has now been replaced by The IPA.

Brands Direct Ltd has overseen the change from 330ml bottles of Anspach & Hobday craft beer to 330ml cans with Marks & Spencer, and has been a supply partner to M&S specialising in regional craft beers and ciders since 1995.

These new 330ml cans mark a continuation of the relationship between Anspach & Hobday and Marks & Spencer, aiming to supply the people of London and the South East with fresh, flavourful and exciting craft beer to their local M&S stores.

Chairman and Co-Founder Jack Hobday says: ‘As we all look to a brighter 2021, we have to give thanks to all of our customers for their patronage. That includes M&S who must be celebrated for supporting local and independent beer this difficult year, and in turn we thank their customers for choosing Anspach & Hobday beer. 

“One of the first M&S stores in London was opened in 1910, a Penny Bazaar in an arch-way in Brixton, a sister location akin to the Bermondsey railway arch in which our brewery began.

“In the early 1900s Londoners drank Porter brewed in London, and most of that was enjoyed as draught beer in local pubs. 111 years later as we launch our cans in M&S, including our world famous Porter, we can take great comfort from the heritage and enjoyment that resides in beer.

“From everyone at A&H: Cheers for your choosing our beer and here’s to 2021, a year in which we hope to revisit some of the joys of the past.”
