Magazine are perhaps one of the less well known/more unheralded bands from the post-punk era. Formed by ex-Buzzcock Howard Devoto the band released a classic early single 'Shot By Both Sides' - if you've never heard it, go check it out. That single was from the first album 'Real Life'. Their second album 'Secondhand Daylight' was released in March-79 and peaked at No.38 in the UK album chart. The band reformed in 2009 and released a new album 'No Thyself' in 2011.
The image we used in the pump clip is from a small cemetery close to the brewery. Our brewery is on a former colliery site (Whitwood) and many of the graves tell the story of tragic accidents that befell miners as well as other workers at the colliery. Mary Alnie died in her 20s accompanying a party on a tour of inspection of the mine. We are reminded of this almost daily as our brewery dog Lily often gets her walk in the graveyard.
The beer is a very pale ale with a little rye added to the grain bill. Lightly hopped with classic European noble hops and infused with a little fresh ginger in the cask.
