Hurd Delivers 7 Inch Vinyls Paired with Craft Beers
Hurd is a unique subscription service that helps its subscribers to discover two new things at once: local craft beers and up-and-coming musicians.
Alcohol and music have always been a good pair, and there's something incredibly satisfying about getting a great beer from a small bar and sitting down to listen to the local band playing there. While Hurd can't mimic that feeling exactly, it comes as close as possible. Available in the UK, the service sends a new craft beer or cider pairing each month, along with a 7 inch vinyl featuring small local bands.
The bands on Hurd's vinyls are often so small that they don't have vinyl pressings of their own. As such, Hurd works directly with those bands' labels to get pressings made for its service.
