New Order To Release Own Beer

Band will make beer available nationally in September

New Order are set to release their own brand of beer following a link-up with Moorhouse’s Brewery based in Burnley.

The drink, which they have named ‘Stray Dog’ based on a track from their 2015 album Music Complete, apparently contains 4.2 per cent of alcohol and is described by them as "a refreshing and clean tasting golden ale with hints of citrus fruit and lychee, all balanced by a subtle bitterness."

If you want to sample it this month, you will have to get yourself along to a branch of Mitchells & Butlers pubs at some point, otherwise you can get it more widely and nationally from next month.
