History

The brewery was established in 1868. In 1873Vauxlaurens Brewery was built in what is now St Julian's Avenue. In 2008 the brewery was moved to a new site in St Georges Esplanade. Since the summer of 2008 Randall's of Guernsey is the only brewery where draught Breda is brewed.

During the 1990s, they launched the popular advertising campaign featuring archetypal Guernsey couple Len and Enid, with the catch line "If it's not Randalls, it's a scandal".

The brewery remained in the ownership of the Randall family until April 2006, when it was sold to The Guernsey Pub Company, a group of private investors.

Availability

Draught Breda and Patois are available throughout Randalls of Guernsey's 17 tied pubs and hotels as well as in various free trade pubs in Guernsey, Alderney and Sark. Bottled beers can be found in the Corkscrew Off-licences and most major supermarkets in Guernsey.
