We went for what was available and best for us in this instance but are grateful to still have that funding from CBILS if we need it. Hopefully we won’t, but there’s still plenty of work to do at the brewery. We have lots of infrastructure changes planned, and finance will become part of the decision-making process when we come to buy these pieces of equipment.” Rewind to 2014: The Seven Bro7hers journey Nestled between the BBC and popular hangout The Botanist, the bar will open its doors on MONDAY 17TH MAY serving a host of the brewery’s popular family of beers.

The Beerhouse offers a lovely relaxed atmosphere, suitable for everyone, whether it be a family trip out, a stop off for lunch or an after-work beer.

He has advised on all matter of things, from starting monthly board meetings to company and employee infrastructure.

As always, a full vegetarian version is available, where the protein is swapped for ingredients like kimchi, tofu, and pumpkin.From the projections and cashflow forecasts from their first bar in Manchester, Keith and his team can use their last two years’ trading history to determine the cashflow for the new Leeds bar at the end of 2020. The partnership with Aldi had been “a fantastic opportunity for Seven Brothers”, said the brewer’s CEO, Keith McAvoy. “We have taken two of our most popular, award-winning beers and adapted the recipe to make something unique for Aldi customers – working together to ensure we craft delicious beers that tap into their consumer price point.” We were the second outlet there and eventually the whole area became synonymous with food and drink. We firmly believe that Wolstenholme Square will be that as well.
