Greg Smith MP enjoyed visiting one of our excellent local breweries, XT Brewing in Long Crendon this morning.
After a tour of the brewery, Greg welcomed the opportunity to chat to XT founder and director Gareth Xifaras alongside Barry Watts from The Society of Independent Brewers (SIBA) about challenges facing the brewery during the Covid-19 pandemic as well as changes to Small Breweries' Relief (SBR). The Buckingham MP has committed to taking up their case on the SBR issue with the Treasury and working with them to ensure this first class local businesses is able to thrive and grow locally.
Commenting, Greg said: "XT is one of four fantastic breweries in the Buckingham constituency, local employers and entrepreneurs. When out and about please do look out for XTs range of beers in local pubs, or pop into their brewery shop Wednesday to Saturday 12-5pm (I certainly took the opportunity to stock up and buy a crate of their XT 4 Amber ale while I was there!)."
