Huge thanks to Nick and Karen at Hop In – Craft Beer Halifax for hosting and letting me pull the very first pint – and for being part of this brilliant local effort. Thanks too to Joe and everyone at Darkland Brewery for a lovely beer and making this happen.

Tomorrow from 2pm, head down to Darkland Indie Brew Co’s 5th Birthday Bash at Ladyship Business Park, Mill Lane, for the official launch of this new beer, brewed in partnership with Overgate Hospice.

50p from every pint goes to Overgate’s Big Build Appeal, raising £10,000 to help expand and improve end-of-life care here in Calderdale.

Overgate Hospice offers outstanding care and compassion to people and families when they need it most. This beer shows what can happen when our community pulls together – local pubs, local brewers, and local people doing their bit.

So if you fancy a pint that gives back, this one’s for you
