LARKINS BREWERY
It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our founder and dear friend Bob Dockerty. Much loved, not only in the local community but far and wide for his kindness, warmth, hospitality and great humour. Our thoughts are with his family, close friends and all who knew him,and we will be announcing more details soon for those who would like to pay their respects. Larkins, as Bob would have wanted, is brewing away so we look forward to raising a glass in his honour with you very soon.
