WIVELISCOMBE-based Cotleigh Brewery is launching its new Somerset Commando Hoofing beer next Wednesday to celebrate the Marines’ return from Afghanistan.

Donations from the sale of bottled and cask beer will go to the 40 Commando Welfare fund for the rehabilitation of Marines and their families.

Cotleigh director Fred Domellof said: “With the hard work that the troops have given in the last two deployments in Afghanistan and with the sad loss of life and many injuries, this is our token of respect to support our Marines and continue the fundraising initiative.”
