They’re the proud Salford brothers who together run a successful brewing company - and are seven-elevenths of what is the “biggest bunch of siblings in booze”.

Seven Brothers Brewing Co is a business like no other - with a 21-year age gap between the youngest and oldest sibling - all of them holding influential roles.
