Thank Cusquena It's Friday September 2006

WHAT A GREAT WEEK ITS BEEN!

If you have trouble viewing this you can see it online here


Not only has the sun been shining but Cusqueña was the exclusive beer at the
GQ awards last week and we were all over the papers because of it!


Chief culprit was Jamie Oliver who was pictured in The Sun carrying a
bottle of our beautiful pure lager. Jamie seemed to be having a really
good time; he had just won chef of the year and we're sure we made his
night by telling him we loved his Thai Green curry.




As well as Mr. Oliver, also spotted on the CUS-KEN-YA…Justin Timberlake,
Juliette Lewis, Lilly Allen, Sadie Frost and hundreds of other party goers!


Graham Norton and Billie Piper were also enjoying CUS-KEN-YA. We liked Graham before but we like him a lot more now! If you’d like to drink what the celebs can’t get enough of.

Check out where you can buy it here.

We are in lots of great bars and restaurants plus Sainsbury’s, Tesco and
ASDA. Coming soon are some other top retailers. We’ll keep you posted!

Win some of the celebrity beer on the lime game below!

BRISTOL AND BATH


As well as heading down to Brighton recently, we had a look at some other places beginning with ‘B’ and last week we headed off to Bristol and Bath.


Having never been to Bath before we loved it! It’s a cross between York and Edinburgh (except in Somerset).

People are quite friendly there too and wanted to list our beer which was good
as it was a long drive from Manchester.

Bristol seems like a great place too and they were equally chilled out. Some really
nice bars there. We’ll be in the following places soon so check us out!
Also lots more are on the stockist page here.

BAR RECOMMENDATIONS



We had quite a few recommendations come in from our bar request the other
week. We’d like a few more if possible. Any good recommendations will
feature on the next e-mailer and you could win yourself a case of beer!


Our winner from the last one was a chap by the name of “Ned” from sunny Huddersfield;
the capital of the North.
Neds review was so good and so long we’ve decided to put it on our site: Check it out here.


If you can do as well as Ned you can win a case of CUS-KEN-YA too!




LAGER & LIME HAS HAD IT’S TIME!

Well it seems our Lime game has got people hooked!

We had a lot of messages from people saying it was too addictive and they
haven’t got much work done!
Many apologies but we're the same! We haven’t got over 23 seconds yet & that record is held by Gareth our commercial director!!

Seems he has a lot of time on his hands! See if you can beat him here.


Keep the lime out of your Cusqueña bottle and away from the walls. If you beat
5 seconds and enter the leader board or forward it on to friends, you
have a chance to win a case of our fabulous beer that celebrities can’t
get enough of!

Possibly the best game ever?

FRIDAY FUNTIME….AVOID THE LIME!! (click
here
to play)


CUS-KEN-YA is a truly excellent beer from Latin America and tastes so nice on its
own that it doesn’t need Lime!


We’ve created a rather addictive “Avoid the lime” game to keep them out of our fabulous beer!


Play it here

The idea is very simple. Move your Cusqueña bottle around the square, avoiding the limes or lime walls and keep going for as long as you can!


Once a month we will draw 10 names from all those who have successfully avoided the limes for longer than 10 seconds! The winner will of course receive
a case of Cusqueña!

As an added incentive, when you are on the game there is a forward to your
friend option! If you forward the game on to at least 3 of your mates,
you also have the chance to win prizes like glasses, t-shirts and yes,
you guessed it…more beer!

Send it on and once a week we will draw the winners names – you’ve got to be
in it to win it!

Last weeks winner was Sharon from Ickford!


Warning!!!
This game is seriously seriously addictive.

Have
fun!


Have a great weekend!

THANK CUS-KEN-YA it's Bank Holiday!!! Aug 2006

WHO STOLE THE SUMMER?


We were having a lovely time basking in the hot weather, wearing flip-flops
to work, hanging out with our friends on school nights as though we were
living on the Costas and then someone turned the thermostat off and it
all stopped!


All of us in our office have now gone indoors & have been playing
our seriously addictive 'dodge the lime' game and have been watching ‘24’ constantly - we are all hooked on both!


In a tenuous link we’ve also spotted Jack Bauer aka the very nice Mr. Kiefer
Sutherland drinking Cusqueña in one of our trendy London hotels. Good
on you Kiefer.


Actually maybe Jack Bauer could find out in an action packed 24 hours who the heck
stole our summer?!

Actually maybe we are just being silly.


BRIGHTON
ROCKS


We spent a few days hanging out in Brighton recently walking on the pebbly beach and checking out some rather nice bars and restaurants!


There are quite a lot of them!


The Gold of the Incas went down a treat with everyone down there and we are happy to say it is now available in the following bars:


OH
SO SOCIAL

BRIGHTON ROCK BEACH HOUSE

SUGA QUBE

HOTEL DU VIN

VANILLA

PS - THE TIN DRUM – We are still talking to them put in a good word for us
if you pop in!


If you are lucky enough to head down to Brighton this weekend, be sure to
visit one of the above venues and enjoy a nice cold Cusqueña!

LAS CHICAS Y CERVEZA




A couple of weeks ago we were on Five Live talking about girls and beer.
Lots more ladies seem to be drinking bottled lager these days and we’ve certainly had many drinking Cusqueña.







When we first started selling Cusqueña (from the back of our cars!) in the UK, we noticed how many of the finer sex were actually drinking our beer.

It genuinely surprised us but then girls do have sophisticated taste.


On the wireless we were asked why we think this is happening? We said we think it’s because lagers such as ours, are light and not gassy but with good depth and flavour for the female palate.


We also think ladies are a little bit cleverer than guys and are keen to spot a trend hence trendies such as Kate Moss, Lilly Allen and Mrs.Mangell all drinking Cusqueña.



The last one was a fib.


KNOCKOUT PUNCH


It’s all hotting up for us at CUS-KEN-YA. We’ve just been taken on by some of the biggest groups in the country making our fabulous beer available
in lots more places for you!


From starting from the back of a Punto two years ago (that we still deliver to a few from!), more and more bars and outlets are stocking the brew from Peru.


From Sept 7th we will be in hundreds of bars around the country thanks to Punch
Taverns, the UK’s biggest bar operator who supply lots of lovely bars including, Marmalade in Chorlton Manchester, Halo in Edinburgh & Funky Buddah in Brighton.


We’ve also got some good news coming on Threshers & Mitchells and Butlers
plus hopefully Waitrose too!


Cusqueña is on a roll!

FUN TIME


Congratulations
to Michelle Pitkin, who correctly spotted that Peru is an anagram of PURE.
For her troubles she's won a case of Latin America's finest lager!

Pure describes the water we use to make our beer from. It is this pure
water that makes it taste so fresh and crisp. This may have something
to do with it coming from melt water at a dizzy 18,000 feet in the Andes.

This week's tricky competition is as follows:

The ladies in the first picture enjoying Cusquena are from a TV show.
Is it:

a) The Muppets

b) Thundercats

c) Hollyoaks



Put "Ladies" in the title & send to!



probablyhollyoaksiwouldguess@chillimp.com


EVEN MORE FUN TIME

Like the last day of term at school when you could take games in, we thought
we’d do something similar for you for the Bank Holiday!


Cusqueña is another excellent beer
from Latin America
but this
great beer doesn't
need a
lime,
so we’ve created an “Avoid
the lime
” game!


The
idea is simple. Move your Cusqueña bottle around the square, avoiding
the limes or lime walls and keep going for as long as you can!


Once
a month we will draw 10 names from all those who have successfully
avoided the limes for longer than 10 seconds! The winner will of
course receive a case of Cusqueña!


As
an added incentive, when you are on the game there is a forward to your
friend option! If you forward the game on to at least 3 of your mates,
you also have the chance to win prizes like glasses, t-shirts and yes,
you guessed it…more beer!

Have
a great bank holiday!

Buenos
dias amigos! Como estan?!


More
holiday lingo in a minute. Whilst the weather has been lovely here we’ve
all been out on a few holidays by the sea and seen more and more people
drinking our fabulous beer CUS-KEN-YA. Muchas gracias!




It makes us very happy to see people standing out from the sea of lager
and lime guzzlers and drinking something different from Latin America
that actually tastes great too.


Good
on you whoever you all are!



…Also
please tell your friends to drink Cusqueñ
a
as we invested all our credit cards into it and the interest is piling
up now!


Learn
Spanish




It is holiday season, Cusqueña is Peruvian and people in Peru speak Spanish
so we thought we’d give you a short Spanish lesson (for those heading
off on their holidays) to survive at the bar and not just have to point
at stuff and look like a monkey!


Maybe
some people might be lucky enough to be going off to beautiful Peru where
this guide will come in handy too.




For those people heading to Spain look out for Cusqueña as Latin America’s
finest lager is on sale in some of the top bars over there.


Anyway
here is some Spanish to help you out at the bar….




  • I
    would like:

    Quiero (Kee-yerro)

And
there concludes this weeks lesson - you’ll be fluent soon!


More
culture - Peruvian Food


Culture
vultures that we are this week - it must be the heat – we’d now like to
tell you about Peruvian food!

When we went to Peru the food there really was unexpectedly great. Some
of the best in Latin America actually (we stayed off the Guinea pig)!




Seafood is really very popular and matches fantastically with Cusqueña.
One such dish is Cerviche and is absolutely great. You don't have to be
Gordon Ramsey to cook it. In fact, you don't have to be Madge Ramsey!
It's easy!


Give
it a go - it's lovely. Recipe
here
.






This next one is a little more taxing (not that difficult really). It’s
Chicken in Cusqueña which sounds weird but is great.

Impress a loved one or just yourself with this one. Recipe
here
.




Beerwave


Wow!
What a thirsty and very sociable little country we have here.





Due to the fantastic weather we’ve had recently, people have been ordering
Cusqueña left, right and indeed in the centre in the bars, hotels and
supermarkets.


The
fact that we genuinely bring our beer from source unlike some other ‘imported
beers’ (brewed in Wales, Scotland & Burton) means that we nearly sold
out last week but a ship laden with our award winning beer has just arrived!
You won't have to go without.



Bar
Recommendations




We
get to meet lots of nice bars, restaurants & hotels as part of our
job. However, we’d be keen to hear some of your recommendations for bars
we should be stocked in or a favourite couple of bars you like to frequent
on a night out!


We’ll
start it off with Manchester and a few of the bars we are pretty fond
of:



Option
1


1/ Room (great food and nice cocktails)

2/ Cocoa Rooms (great drinks and by the river)

3/ MOJO (absolutely the best bar ever!)


Option
2


1/ Blue (nice food and good music)

2/ Common (top staff & great atmosphere)

3/
Copacabana (top fun and great atmosphere!)


Get
in touch below and if we print your suggestions we’ll give you a case
of Cusqueña:


iknowsomegoodbars@chillimp.com


Competition
Time




Well done to Miss Jackie Aldred from Leigh who won a case of beer in our
last competition!






This week's is equally as difficult.


PERU
is an anagram of a word we use to describe our beer as it's made using
melt water from 18,000 feet in the Andes.


Can
you guess what it is yet?!



A) PURE

B) ERUP

C) REUP

Thank CUS-KEN-YA it is Friday! 14th July

World cup is over. Wimbledon is finished. Think there’s nothing to look forward to?!




Of course there is! There is a whole beautiful summer outside your window
to be enjoyed, barbecues aplenty with friends, the Edinburgh festival
starting soon, Lilly Allen’s album is out next week, Sven has left England,
no more stories of “WAG’s” (wives and girlfriends of footballers) in the
newspapers and to top it off lots of Latin America’s finest cerveza CUS-KEN-YA is now being stocked in top bars, restaurants, delis and supermarkets near you which you can toast this fine summer sun with!



See!
You can be cheerful and happy!

Saludos
amigos!




Although we’re not getting a lot of it at the moment as it is nice and
hot outside, CUS-KEN-YA contains quite a lot of water. In fact, 90% of
the beer you drink is made of water, hence it’s kind of important where
it comes from!




You should therefore be quite pleased to know that Cusqueña is made using
the purest melt water from the tops of the Andes, a cool 18,000 feet up
to be rather precise. To be even more exact; that is 3,000 feet higher
than BA flies Manchester to London!


This
gives it an intensely crisp start & makes it ultra refreshing! It
also helps keep the hangovers at bay!




It
also means we won’t brew under license here like some others do as we
want to make sure you get the authentic product you would experience in
the country of origin.


We
think that’s important!



Read
all about…us!


We’ve
been all over the papers recently.




Actually
that’s a fib - we’ve been in a few.

A
couple of weeks ago we were in the Daily Mail Live Night & Day who
said we were;


“Light
on bubbles but full of flavour – no piece of lime needed!” - You’re right
Live Night & Day! Keep your citrus fruit in your cocktails or Thai
currys.




We were also in The Sunday Times Style magazine last week. They picked
us out with 8 other beers that match perfectly with food. Cusqueña apparently
went well with Spanish, Italian and Thai and they said Cusqueña is “Crisp,
pure and very flavoursome.” Pretty good hey?


Better
still was Sainsbury’s Food magazine called ‘Fresh Ideas’. They said; “Cusqueña
is one of the hot contenders for the crown of coolest drinks of the summer.”
Thank you.


We’ve
taken over as the Drinks Sponsor in the Manchester Evening News so if
you are in Manchester and want to write a review on your favourite restaurant,
you can win two cases of our lovely beer for your efforts!


You
can win some here in the competition at the bottom.


3
is the magic number….


So
Zidane lost it and Italy won it. We all thought it was a pretty boring
World Cup Final really. Wasn’t really the spectacle the tournament deserved
which was put on rather brilliantly by the Germans.


We
asked you to don Mystic Meg glasses to predict a winner from the final
16 and despite having thousands of entrants only 3 people got it right!!


It
seems those glasses were obviously misty and not mystic.


Congratulations
to the following 3 people anyway.


Mike
Gregory

Mark Phillipson

Jonathan Jones


Many
were patriotic and went for Mr Burns’ England, however over 65% of all
answers were for Argentina.




This
included an unfortunate guy named Nick Harman who’s Argentina entry not
only saw him lose this silly quiz but he also backed the same team and
lost a whole load more. His story below made us feel so gutted for him
(as well as chortle a little) that we are giving him a case anyway to
get over this nasty result!


“Argentina”


“Having
said that, the last bet I had on them this week led to me not winning
£47,000 as they failed to beat Holland! I got the other 11 right in a
12 game accumulator!”


As
Nick Berry said, “every loser wins Nick” so we are sending you a case
in sympathy.


THIS
WEEK’S COMPETITION…


We
know that your heads must be hurting after the last competition so this
week we need to know the answer to the following easier question:


Why
is it important to drink the product that is bottled at source and not
produced under license?


1)
Because my Dad says it will be better.

2) It is authentic & you the consumers are getting the same product
as in the country of origin.

Thank CUS-KEN-YA it is Friday! 23rd June






We’re not so well in our office.


Why?
(we hear you cry)


Because
we’ve got World Cup fever!


Boom
boom ching!


Anyway
lots of world cup references and a chance to win some beer for footy predictions
are the order of this week it seems….







THIRST CUP




Well it's more than half way through the World Cup and as football fever
has gripped the country people also seem to have been very, very thirsty
for our award winning pure lager from Peru.


Apart
from helping people NOT to wake-up with banging heads because there aren’t
any nasty impurities in our beer (which is kind of cool), Cusqueña is
the most fabulously quaffable beer for summer and has become a popular
accompaniment to the general summer merriment.


Good
stuff.



As
we mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Selfridges have Cusqueña listed as
their official beer of the world cup in their Football Lounge. The good
people of London have drunk them dry!


As
a result of all you thirsty people, we have had to send off for even more
ships full of our beautiful beer quick sharp.




TASTE OF LONDON




Apart from enjoying more than our fair share of Germany 2006 (office favorites
are Argentina or Spain),we have been very busy letting lots more people
taste our lovely crisp refreshing lager.


Last
weekend we spent our time in a nice star shaped tent at Regents Park at
the Taste of London food and drink show where we had four days of glorious
sunshine, 40,000 people and lots of ice-cold Cusqueña.


Needless
to say it went down faster than the Poseidon.


We
all worked behind the bar and whilst it was hard work keeping up with
everyone’s demands for Cusqueña all day, at least we managed to squeeze
a massive 5 hours sleep in per night in our 5* luxury, mould ridden tents.
Lovely.


We
were asked by lots of people where they can get the beer so apart from
your nearest bar (www.cusquena.co.uk/stockists.htm)
look out for four packs in Sainsbury's, Tesco and Asda.





Hopefully Waitrose will also be added to the list soon as we’ve just met
a top guy called “Steve” this week who seems to like our beer and will
hopefully be making space for the brew from Peru on their shelves soon.


Top
man.




FRUIT AND BEER


People
were also asking at Taste of London if we advise sticking citrus fruit
in our beer.


One
word…


“No”.
Three
more…


“Don’t
be daft.”


We
think putting fruit in lager is something that only Mums and Dads did
in the seventies or that people should only do if they are slightly worried
about their lack of Vitamin C.


Due
to being a brewery set up by German guys and brewed to the high German
standards with lots of good natural ingredients, CUS-KEN-YA has a fantastic
flavour so there is no need to enhance it with a piece of fruit.


Therefore,
unless you are worried about scurvy, enjoy an ice cold fruit free Cusqueña
this weekend and squeeze your citrus fruit in a nice Thai curry for a
loved one.


Try
one of Delia’s we found online here.




WORLD CUP BANTER


Been
too busy to keep your wall chart up-to-date, or just been mighty lazy?


Either
way, feel free to use our up to the minute
spreadsheet
sent by our skiving teacher friend Nick (who hasn’t
been doing his marking recently!) for the 2nd round and beyond. It even
shows what channels the games are on as well. Very handy!


More
football stuff…


Here
is something else we were sent this week that made us chuckle from our
mate Dave. It is an ordinary blokes application for the recent Middlesbrough
FC job…very funny. What's also brilliant is the reply from Steve Gibson
Boro's chairman. Check it out here...




COMPETITION TIME


Congratulations
to Jay Freeman who won a case of beer & Nikki Knight who came second
and won some hay fever pills we’d bought from Boots.


Slightly
trickier than our normal ones. This week we would like you to don a Mystic
Meg style glasses (did she wear glasses – frankly we don’t care) and predict
who will win the World Cup.


The
first five that we pick out who get it right will win a case of our beautiful
beer.


ANSWERS
TO:


probablynotenglandunfortunately@chillimp.com




Have a good weekend and fingers crossed for England (unless you are Scottish
then you will want to be saying “Vamos Ecuador!”)


Either
way have a nice one.

Thank CUS-KEN-YA it is Friday! 9th June

Hello
everyone. We hope you are well, have had a nice week and have had a chance
to enjoy the sun.


We
are all well and have had a fab week (apart from Kieron who is now suffering
badly from hay fever). However, beneath his red itched eyes and snivelly
hooter he says he’d rather it be sunny than have that terrible weather
in May.


He’s
a real trooper.


If
you too are suffering you can win some nasal spray (or a case of CUS-KEN-YA)
in a competition below.


GLAMOROUSLY
BEAUTIFUL BEER


This
week we sponsored Glamour Magazines Women of The year Awards in London.


Lots
of top celebrity people drunk Cusqueña and discovered for themselves how
beautiful it is. Due to it’s fabulous pure ingredients they also discovered
it’s magical effects the morning after!


Although
we were shunned by most celebs (standing there gorping at people didn’t
appear to be a big hit on celebrity street!) we did have a good chat
with a few including Danny from Embrace who is a top fella (and a big
fan of Cusqueña) and the lovely Fearne Cotton who is a very very nice
lady indeed.


UNOFFICIALLY
WE’RE OFFICIAL…


Officially
we are nothing to do with the world cup or indeed the England team. We
haven’t got a boat load of cash to sponsor it. We haven’t even got a lilo
full of it to be honest.



However, with its amazing taste, ingredients & its German brewing
qualities, CUS-KEN-YA has rather rapidly become the favourite beer of
the England Players.


It
seems Stevie G, Lamps, Joe Cole, Becks, Rio, Michael Owen and the boy
Rooney all have exceptional taste in fine lager as (along with other top
celebs) they are big fans of Peru’s Pure Cusqueña drinking it weekly in
the countries best bars.


You
can join them by clicking on the stockists list and drinking it in a bar
near you or try it in the supermarkets – it’s on promotion in Tesco, ASDA
& Sainsbury’s for the world cup.


www.cusquena.co.uk/stockists.htm


MORE
UNOFFICIAL WORLD CUP INVOLVEMENT…


Football
Fever is well and truly in the air (we’re very excited despite our hay
fever) & Selfridges have promised a heaven on earth for football fanatics.


They
are inviting everyone to experience the World Cup in something rather
special called the “Ultralounge” sponsored by Umbro.


It
has 20 specially installed top HD tellys and what’s more you can enjoy
every game of the world cup with Selfridges exclusive beer for the tournament
a nice cold ice cold Cusqueña (the unofficial beer of the World Cup).


COMPETITION
TIME…


Which
band has done the official England World Cup song who we met this week?


Put
the answer in the subject box and send it to embrace@chillimp.com


1st prize = a case of Cusqueña

2nd prize = some hay fever nasal spray


AND
FINALLY….


Funny
stuff for the weekend. We were sent this video this week of this chap
busting some great dance moves. Check him out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg&eurl


Have
a great weekend.

Cusquena - Spread The Love

¡Saludos amigos!


LOVED
UP!


Lots
of love for CUS-KEN-YA seems to be the theme for this week.


More
and more people are discovering and loving our amazing brew from Peru
as we are selling it by the bucket load (or actually by bottle or four
pack) in the bars & supermarkets.


With
the purest water from 18,000 feet in the Andes and all natural ingredients
it really is an amazing tasting beer which is why all the best bartenders
in the UK are not only recommending it but drinking it too.


Get
to a bar or an ASDA, Sainsbury’s or Tesco near you to try it!! Click here

BIG
LOVE AT BBC GOOD FOOD!


Last
week we took Cusquena to the BBC Summer Good Food show in Birmingham which
was absolutely brilliant.


Despite
us being there during what seemed like a Peruvian rainy season, everyone
was still keen to try a nice ice cold CUS-KEN-YA.


Along
with lots of lovely people who came to see us saying they loved Cusqueña
( including Jimmy from Jimmy’s farm!) was George Philliskirk CEO of The
Beer Academy (very knowledgeable beer people) who told the audience he
thought CUS-KEN-YA was “very crisp and refreshing, really lovely and perfect
for summer.”


Good
job it’s cracking the flags outside then eh?


Due
to all this we ran out of beer and tried to leave early but a Peter Kay
Health & Safety type wouldn’t let us go.


Still
it gave us a chance to visit some other people including the nice folks
from Devon at BURTS chips and eat a lot whilst we waited! They were great
plus they do this really nice SALSA as well - definitely recommended!
www.burtschips.com


READ
ALL ABOUT IT LOVE…


…Or
if you’ve got Sky One you could watch all about it but then that doesn’t
sound right does it?


Anyway
thanks to Sky One, the lovely person at the Daily Mail and the fab beer
writer at Restaurant Magazine as they have joined the growing list of
people loving our beer.


Apparently
we are “great compared to watery Mexican beer”, we’re “great lager to
go with Barbecues” (not char grilling though), and just “great”. Very
nice of them to say so too.


Muchas
gracias amigos! Read more about it here www.cusquena.co.uk/press.htm


SAINSBURY’S
LOVE


Sainsbury’s
were the first supermarket to take on our beer so we like them a lot.
Ben & Guy who work there are also very nice people. Both of them love
Cusqueña and have a penchant for yummy Burgers in a restaurant just round
the corner from their office.


Anyway
with the clever people at Sainsbury’s you can order a four pack of Cusqueña
online delivered to your door so you don’t have to get soaked going out!
Bonus.


Order
from Sainsburys here.



Plus next week are going on the end of aisle in a lot of their stores
so check us out amigos.


MORE
BAR LOVE!!!


Birmingham
and Liverpool seem to be the flavour of the week! This week we’ve been
listed in The Dugout and The Hope St Hotel in Liverpool, The Old Rectory
and Poppy Red in Birmingham and lots of other cool places too.


Plus
we’ve had confirmation from the people at Punch Taverns that they are
taking Cusqueña in lots of their pubs in the next few months. WOO HOO.


If
there’s a bar near you that you’d like to stock it fill in this questionnaire
and you can win some of our lager.
www.cusquena.co.uk/questionnaire.htm


Anyway
have a really good weekend! Just make sure you don’t go out without armbands;
it’s awful out there.

Cusquena Beer Banter - 12th May 2006

SHIP AHOY!

Due to amazing demand for CUS-KEN-YA across all our bars and supermarkets and the fact that we genuinely bring our beer from source (unlike some other ‘imported beers’), we nearly sold out last week!



Coupled with this it seems someone of the ilk of Uncle Albert was skippering our next boat load as they got our ship stuck in Jamaica!


Still, it’s here now and your summer plans can be put back on track as “The World’s Best Beer” (said by many people!) is back in town!


Thanks to all our customers (particularly the nice people at ASDA) for their patience!

The UK’s biggest Grocer; Tesco takes Cusqueña on from Monday!
