Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Craft beer fans rejoice, independent brewery BrewDog is opening the first in a series of bottle shops where you can saunter around filling up flasks from the taps then take your chosen beers home.

Located at 69 Grays Inn Road just down from Kings Cross, the shop will stock over 250 different beers, offering an alternative to the handful of lukewarm bottles of Sol you might find in your average off licence.

Customers will also be able to fill up takeaway flasks, known as growlers, from the taps on site, and peruse homebrewing equipment and brewing essentials like wet yeast, malt and hops.

Staff will be on hand with advice, all of which will be Cicerone trained.

BrewDog, which currently has 16 bars across the world, is hoping to open up more BottleDogs, which will also host tasting sessions and its Beer School.

The first shop opens on Friday and its opening hours will be Monday to Friday noon til 9pm, and Saturday noon until 8pm. More information over at brewdog.com.
