We're collaborating with SeaGrown for a tasting event
Posted by Tracey Baty on
Come and join us onboard the Southern Star, home to the SeaGrown Centre, on 8th November to hear us talk about the unique beers we produce from kelp harvested by the SeaGrown team, taste some beer and sample some tasty snacks.
Brand Ambassador, Jo and Michelle from our events team will talk about the beers we’re brewing from Yorkshire seaweed, Alice from SeaGrown will share information about their unique large-scale seaweed farm and the SeaGrown Centre chef, Chris will prepare a selection of snacks to accompany the beer-tasting.
“Since 2018, SeaGrown has been sustainably growing and harvesting seaweed right here on the Yorkshire Coast. This planet-friendly crop can be used for many wonderful things, including beer. In 2022, they invited us to brew a seaweed beer, Hold Fast, for them to serve in their café and restaurant, and we have recently brewed a second beer, Down the Hatch. We’re looking forward to tasting these and other Wold Top beers alongside some delicious snacks on board the Southern Star,” said Jo.
Tickets for the event, which takes place on the boat that is moored in Scarborough Harbour, cost £20 and include a welcome pint of seaweed beer, snacks and beer tasters. They are available online at https://bit.ly/WTSeagrownTasting.
Founded in 2018 by Wave Crookes and Laura Robinson, SeaGrown is Britain’s first large-scale offshore seaweed farm. Their pioneering seaweed farm is producing a sustainable crop year-round – with an ever-expanding range of uses – from foods to agriculture and nutraceuticals to bioplastics.
