The Welder’s Dog

In 2017, beer loving mates Tom, Phil and Dan committed to their dream of bringing their Farmhouse Ginger Ale to the consumer market.

They knew it was really good, and their customers down at the bar they owned wanted more of it – but they’d blown up too many blenders in the kitchen and it was time to go big. Launching a successful craft beer business was going to be about a lot more than just moving cans, they needed a brand, an internet presence and a distribution network. That’s where nucleo stepped in.
