Founded in 2014, BiG HUG was born from a love of brands, the drinks industry & a desire to make a difference.

As ‘HOBO’ BREWERS we don’t own our own brewery, but that’s our story, that’s what makes us a little bit different.

We work with some of the best in the industry  - people we now call friends to create beers that are accessible, easy drinking & full of flavour whilst making a meaningful difference along the way.

Today, under Matts leadership, Big Hug is a brand with social cause at its heart – something that was a a founding pillar of the business.

Whilst it's always been beer first, we believe in positive social impact & Big Hug is simply the vehicle that allows us to maximise our impact. An extension of our values.

We believe if everyone gave a little something back the world would be a better place for it.

We support the homeless sector & our chosen partners Only A Pavement Away, Centrepoint & YMCA Downslink Group along with climate action project through our partnership with One Tribe.

That means every beer we sell has a positive impact on

PEOPLE & PLANET.
