'We started our hobby in our garage then we turned it into a £5m business'
manchestereveningnews.co.ukA married couple are running a £5 million business, which started with a hobby in their garage. Luci and Mike Clayton-Jones started brewing beer at home before their wedding in 2015 and say itr has brought them "even closer together".
The husband and wife, from Caversham in Berkshire, created their first “Mr and Mrs home-brew” in their garage called “Ginger Beered” as a wedding favour for their guests in 2015.
