BURNLEY'S Moorhouse's Brewery enjoyed record sales over the festive period.
Trading saw a 10 per cent increase on 2006 figures with 1,200 brewers barrels (345,600 pints) sold to pubs in December up to Christmas Eve.
The brewery is poised to double capacity to more than 700 barrels a week with a £2m investment in the site.
Managing director David Grant said: "Once again our sales fly in the face of the pundits that forever peddle doom and gloom for the ale market."
