Name change and bag giveaway for East Twickenham alcohol shop

A shop selling craft beer, natural wine, cider and spirits in East Twickenham is rebranding - and today customers can grab an item of their old merchandise for free.

Real Ale in Richmond Road has outgrown its original name and is becoming Real Drinks.

The shop opened more than a decade ago and has since opened new branches in Maida Vale and Notting Hill.

Over the first lockdown they started taking orders online for the first time.

They launched a new website, staff have donned new Real Drinks uniform and its shop front blinds and windows are being changed.

From today (Thursday, April 8) customers can have a free totes bag with the original Real Ale design.

Real Drinks have around 75 of the bags to hand out.
