Message chriso P beers 7540 º places 736 º 16:07 Tue 10/9/2012 Originally posted by FatPhil Originally posted by _angst_ Have had the chance to try a beer from a UK brewer that is supposed to be called New Wave. Their beers Electric Fandango and Melody Maker were available at this years Stockholm Beer & Whisky festival through their importer and have also been served at some pubs in Stockholm. Ah, perhaps the pump clip did have a ’NW’ kind of motif on it, I couldn’t really recognise what it was trying to be at the time. When I added Melody Maker yesterday, I based my "Williams" deduction 100% on data from untappd. So if it’s wrong, blame them! As I suspected. And that untappd info seesm to come from one person who seemed the to think, for unspecified reasons, it’s Williams Bros. Anyway, out Scottish friends are on the case so, no doubt, they’ll get chapter & verse in the fullness of time.
Message jamesbwxm 16:02 Wed 10/10/2012 According to their twitter feed, CraftCentric are definately New Wave brewed at Williams Bros. Possibly export only? I know Chris has a lot of business interests in Stockholm.

Best to treat them as separate entries unless & until we are 100% certain they are rebadges.
