Collaboration in beer is an often abused term, but it really can be a wonderful thing.

It often provides we brewers with the opportunity (or just an excuse?) to try something new, or experiment down roads less trodden.

Here are just some of the beers we're pouring at this weekends' #Stocktoberfest
