A vehicle for better bubbles
We didn't start as a drinks brand. We started behind the bar, pouring hundreds of glasses an hour in a field. Here's how two friends and a converted van ended up putting Italian fizz on tap across the UK.
Ten years of bubbles
Two friends and a Piaggio Ape
Ben Broad and Joe Bruce import a tiny Italian Piaggio Ape van, convert it into a mobile bar and start pouring sparkling wine on tap at weddings and events.
100+ weddings
The little van is booked for more than a hundred weddings in its first year. Word spreads fast.
A sidecar, then a second van
A converted 1969 motorbike and sidecar joins the line-up, then a second van, and the Bros start turning up in the national press, from Time Out to Refinery29.
The fizz wasn’t good enough
The format worked, but the keg sparkling wine available in the UK let it down. It couldn’t stand up to the events the Bros were being booked for, so they stopped looking for a supplier and went looking for a better wine.
Off to Italy
They came back from the Veneto with a frizzante: gently sparkling, softer than bottled Prosecco and built for draught rather than forced into it. That wine is still the business.
Tried and tested
Hampton Court Palace, Covent Garden Piazza, Glastonbury, the BBC Good Food Show and more than a thousand public and private events, pouring hundreds of glasses an hour.
On tap across the UK
Now the same wine is poured in venues like The O2 and Crowne Plaza. 20L kegs, 160 glasses each, delivered nationwide in 2–3 days, with our Bros on hand to help install your tap.
