I’m getting drunk for you
Tribute Bands at London Vegan Beer Fest
There is something special about standing in a field with a drink in your hand while a grown adult dressed vaguely like Freddie Mercury belts out arena classics into the afternoon sky.

Vegan Friendly Wine and Drinks Company
I am always interested when a drinks brand gets in touch and says they are vegan, Queer-owned, and genuinely putting something back into the community.
Even more so when it is clear they are not just lazily slapping a rainbow on a bottle.
