The Bowland Brewery has been shipping small quantities of Cromwell Stout to James Hall Ltd. for distribution into Spar shops from Cheshire to Cumbria for a couple of years. This has now been extended to all of the Spar outlets in the North West and Sky Dancer and Headless Peg are also available.

It has meant some changes at the brewery with bigger bottling batches going out, new labelling requirements and a forklift to handle the full pallet loads that are now collected on a regular basis.
