BLACK Sheep Brewery is to supply its All Creatures Yorkshire Pale Ale, brewed in celebration of James Herriot, to Asda as a bottled beer.

Previously a seasonal cask beer, All Creatures has been launched as a new addition to the brewery’s permanent bottled range, and a deal has already been struck to supply it nationally in 237 Asda stores from this month.

All Creatures celebrates the life of Alf Wight, creator of the famous veterinary character and the name is synonymous across the world with the Yorkshire Dales, home of the Black Sheep Brewery.

Jo Theakston, sales and marketing director of Black Sheep Brewery, said: “We’ve had a great response so far and were delighted to get a listing nationally with Asda. We are keen to keep experimenting with new styles and packaging so watch this space for more to come.”
