THE North-East brewery that serves much of clubland has given itself a new look.

The Gateshead-based Federation Brewery has unveiled a new black and gold logo that will appear on its lorries, signs and stationery.

The words Our Own Brewery are prominent in the design, referring to "The Fed'' being the country's only co-operative brewery and the biggest independent brewer in the North-East.

Chief executive Geoff Hodgson said: "A strong corporate identity helps create the foundation for a company and I am delighted with our new logo which instantly depicts the heritage of the brewery.

"The new logo will also become an integral component on future brand developments.'
