2020 in stats

As part of the January newsletter, Kate and Alex pulled together a few quirky facts for you...

In 2020 we

• Brewed an estimated 1.4 million pints worth of beer (interestingly this is still less than 1% of the total UK annual production). 
• Used 3000 kg of hops and 325 tonnes of malt
• Packaged 1.8 million bottles through our sister packaging company of both Wold Top and other breweries’ beer. 
• Sent out over 10,000 boxes of beer to individual customers all over the UK. From Scotland to Cornwall and everywhere in between! 
• Used 17,500 box staples.
• Have gone through 700 rolls of packaging and fragile tape. 
• Used 6 rolls (300m) of bubble wrap. 
• Filled 800+ mini casks.
• Increased our social media followers by 30% over Facebook and Instagram. 
• Saw a 1170% increase in online sales through our brewery website, and of those customers who bought online in 2020, 94% had never purchased our beers directly from us online before. 

In addition...

We ate (collectively as a Wold Top/Agricola Bottling team) 

• 192 bacon sandwiches
• 20 birthday cakes
• 5 tubs of Celebrations/Miniature Heroes/Quality Streets
• 50 mince pies
• Numerous chocolate biscuits

And drank

• 3000 cups of coffee
• 5000 mugs of tea (Yorkshire, of course)
• And a few pints of beer and glasses of wine! 

Let’s see what 2021 will bring!
