As one door closes, another opens, and so it was for Will Laithwaite, whose brewing venture part-filled a void left by the closure of Morland brewery (of Speckled Hen fame) in 2000. Rather than copying his brother Henry and following in his father’s (countless) footsteps around the world’s vineyards, Will set his sights on the beer trade and the once famous brewing town of Abingdon. He set up his brewery in 2010, gaining much local popularity by consulting them on their favourite style of beer. The result was his first release: Abingdon Bridge. Will, by his own admission, has always been a loose cannon (a name given to him by his rugby chums) and it seemed a catchy name for his business. 676 is big on crisp, citrusy refreshment.
