Update from Team Abbeydale
As lockdown takes hold of the nation once more, we just wanted to let you all know what we’re up to – we’re still here, still brewing, and still here for you – whether you’re in need of a beer or even just a chat!
Our lovely community pub The Rising Sun has closed its doors again in line with the new regulations, and so we are no longer in a position to offer collections of online shop orders from the pub. However we’ve done yet more pivoting and have been able to move this service to the brewery site – so for those local to us, click and collect is available! Orders must be placed online in advance, but then we’ll have your beer ready and waiting for you with a smile (behind a mask, but we promise it’s there!). We’ll be open for collections 2-6 Monday-Friday and 10-4 on Saturdays. Any order placed by midday Monday-Saturday will be ready to collect from 2pm that same day! We’ll look after your order until you’re ready to come and grab it, so don’t worry if you can’t make it on the day you place your order.
Deliveries will of course be continuing, both locally and nationwide, and are still FREE with all orders of a case of cans or two minikegs. So don’t forget that you can get hold of our beers to enjoy at home without having to leave the comfort of your settee, we will very happily come to your door!
With pubs sadly closing for the next few weeks, we’re diverting some of the stocks we had ready for cask into 5l minikegs, so keep an eye on the online shop for more of those coming soon! Alongside this we’ve got even more cans on the way, as well as of course all your regular favourites. We’re doing our very best to keep busy and keep the beer flowing!
We’d love to encourage you all to support your local independent businesses this month – now could be the perfect time to crack on with your Christmas shopping! We’ve got the first of our gift ideas launching this weekend with gift boxes and Moonshine minikegs pre-orders on the way! But of course, it’s not just us – we’re hugely lucky even just in the Abbeydale Road area of Sheffield to be surrounded by amazingly resilient and creative businesses, so please if you are able, consider doing your shopping with smaller companies for whom your custom is so, so valuable.
Thank you so much for your support – at the risk of sounding like a broken record, it really does mean a lot to us all. We genuinely couldn’t get through this without you, and we hope we can bring a little bit of cheer to these challenging times.
