It's been a challenging year for small businesses but a new craft brewery in Twickenham has been blown away by the support shown by the local community.
Jawbone Brewing, which opened just before Christmas, quickly sold out of its inaugural pale ale and has already had a great response to its first IPA.
The team is doubling production in February to keep up with demand at the brewery door, independent retailers and through the online shop, which launched in January.
Founder Ben Hughes said: "It's been a long road to get to this point, topped off by the coronavirus pandemic.
"But everyone has been so excited about the brewery opening. It's really made it all worthwhile."
Mr Hughes started his career in beer at Weird Beard Brew Co in Hanwell, before going out on his own two years ago.
He plans to produce a wide range of beer styles in cans, kegs and cask, including lager, bitter, IPA, stouts and imperial varieties.
He fell in love with the site at Newman's Shipyards in July 2019 and has worked hard to convert the riverside building into a 30-hectolitre brewery and taproom, which will open as soon as the current lockdown restrictions ease.
Mr Hughes grew up in Barnes and has always had a close affinity to the river. He rowed at school, recently learned to sail, and was a regular fixture on his grandmother's boat in Henley. He and his partner Emma live in Hampton with their son Rory.
