BrewDog new 2025 Official Beer Partner to Lord’s Cricket Ground

In a landmark move for the brand, today, BrewDog is delighted to announce its new partnership with Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) to be the Official Beer Partner at Lord’s Cricket Ground, in a four-year deal which starts early in the new year.

This significant partnership sees the ground become the first sports venue in the UK to hand over its taps to a craft beer brand, as well as being the only to pour 100 per cent British beer.


The deal incorporates a comprehensive range of BrewDog beers, all brewed in Britain, and will see over 450 draught taps pouring the likes of Punk IPA, Hazy Jane, Lost Lager, Wingman IPA, Black Heart Stout, Cold Beer Lager and Shore Leave Amber Ale, as well as Punk AF and Lost AF from its alcohol-free offering. With a capacity of 31,000 and nearly 60 days of cricket, Lord’s serves around 750,000 pints, across the year.

In true BrewDog style, the brewer will make its mark at the venue, displaying its bold and playful personality across every bar. With a full activation plan currently in progress, including a craft beer terrace takeover, which will be the biggest and best craft beer bar in UK sport.

“This is one of the most monumental achievements we could ever hope for our business," said James Arrow, CEO of, BrewDog plc. "With an ambition to make as many people as passionate about craft beer as we are, this partnership with Lord’s enables us to do just that, taking BrewDog to a premium mainstream audience with a full range of beer styles to suit everyone.

“I couldn’t be prouder of the team that pulled this together and I look forward to a long and successful relationship with this incredibly iconic venue.”

MCC Commercial Director, Andy Muggleton, said: “Partnering with BrewDog is a fantastic step forward for MCC. This collaboration not only brings a new level of quality to our bars at Lord's but also an enhanced matchday experience, with takeovers and pop-ups at the ground, as well as event benefits and discounts for Members. We look forward to introducing the new line-up of craft beers, providing a refreshing, modern twist to our offering, which we’re sure will be well-received by all who visit the Home of Cricket.”

Safer alternatives to cigarettes could save millions of lives and billions of pounds, says think tank

Promoting safer alternatives to cigarettes could save 19 million years of life by 2030 and reduce smoking-related costs to taxpayers by up to £12.6 billion annually, a new report from the Adam Smith Institute (ASI) has revealed.

The think tank argues that the UK government's current approach to achieving a Smoke Free 2030 - defined as reducing smoking rates to 5 per cent or lower - is both illiberal and unworkable and will significantly set back progress against smoking related harm. The ASI warns that policies such as a generational tobacco ban, a new tax on vapes, and restrictions on heated tobacco products and flavours will hinder harm reduction efforts.
