Cornish brewers are taking part in efforts to commemorate the first anniversary of the murder of MP Jo Cox.

St Austell Brewery has joined forces with brewers across the nation to create the Great Get Together Pale Ale – a collective effort for the Jo Cox Foundation which is organising community get-togethers across the country.

In keeping with the ideals of The Great Get Together event, Great Get Together Pale Ale is a ground-breaking collective effort.  Some of the oldest, largest, smallest and newest brewers from across the UK: Adnams, Arkells, Cliff Quay, Elgoods, Fullers, Harviestoun, Joseph Holts, Joules, J W Lees, Marstons, Palmers, St Austell, Theakstons, Thornbridge and Woodfordes, and The Good Beer Co. have teamed up .  

The beer will be sold at participating breweries, pubs, shops and other venues during June and July (while stocks last) and distributed free to a number of Great Get Together events during the Great Get Together Weekend in June. Profits will go to the Jo Cox Foundation. Funds raised will support their work to bring together communities across the UK in the spirit of Jo’s words: ‘We have far more in common than that which divides us.’
