The owner of a Cornish micropub is looking to buy 20 pins (four-and-a-half-gallon beer casks) to broaden the beer selection for his customers.

The pins are required for the Pilchard Press Alehouse, in St Ives, one of my regular stop-offs, which features heavily on my social media.

Not all brewers use pins, but Pilchard Press owner Nick Simpson hopes he can get some filled if he can find some to buy. “Depending on the cost, I might want as many as 20,” he tells me.

If you have any for sale, or know of someone who has, give Nick a call or drop him a text on 07702 174682.
