Brechin brewery toasting selection for Aldi festival

Balbirnie Wheat Beer from Park Brew in Brechin has been chosen by supermarket Aldi to feature in its 14th Scottish Beer Festival.

Thousands of bottles will be available from 78 Aldi stores across the country in a festival celebrating the talent flowing from Scotland’s craft beer industry.

The event is expected to generate £114,000 for the 34 breweries involved.

Graham Nicolson, group buying director for Aldi in Scotland, said: “We have scoured the country to bring craft beer fans the very best Scotland has to offer and the fact we are celebrating the 14th Scottish Beer Festival highlights how popular they are with our customers.”
