Iron Maiden and Help For Heroes launch ‘Light Brigade’ ale

Heavy metal legends have teamed and brewers Robinson have announced a new ale called Light Brigade. This will be in support of Help For Heroes.

Light Brigade is described as a ‘unique golden English ale’ with a 4.1 ABV.

6p of each pint and 5p of each bottle sold will be donated to help the thousands of Servicemen and women who live with complex wounds and injuries – both physical and mental – and are looking to regain their purpose in life.

Maiden front man Bruce Dickinson had this to say:

“We are very proud to have been asked to get involved. I have been an instructor on several of British Airways’ flight simulator ‘Flying Heroes’ days for Help For Heroes Veterans, so I know the charity and the work that they do well. Light Brigade is our interpretation of a golden ale that maintains the elements of strength and character that are the essence of Trooper but at a more sessionable level. In fact, the two beers complement each other very well.”

The ale will be produced on a long term basis alongside Iron Maiden and Robinson’s Trooper range: 666, Red and Black, and Hallowed.
