It’s clear that it will be at least another month until we can step inside a pub or tap-room again, and it’s definitely not going to be quite the same for some time. Independent beer sales are down 82% (SIBA) during this crisis. For those you wanting to recreate the experience at home, as well as help out some local businesses, here are a list of local, Reading (UK) breweries who are delivering. I’m slowly working my way down the list!

I’ve listed the status as of 26 May, but check the websites for more more up-to-date information.
