What is Full Circle Balance?
Full Circle Balance is an initiative we designed to promote drinking beer as part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Instead of feeling the need to cut back on the things you love and enjoy, you can still indulge as you please without guilt as you know you’ll be outside the next morning, balancing it out.
It doesn’t need to be strenuous and everyone can find their comfort zone with anything from hiking to running to cycling - whatever suits you. We want Full Circle Balance to encourage you all to come along and join us on some adventures this year, motivated by the free beer you’ll take away at the end as well as the feel good factor from getting outside, moving and pushing your comfort zone - all things also proven to have a positive impact on your mental health.
Full Circle Run Club
The popularity and growth of our run club has been the driving force for Full Circle Balance, realising that such a large contingent of our audience are outdoorsy people with a fierce passion and appreciation for sports and wellness. What started as a small group of fewer than 10 runners has grown into a thriving community of 70+ and counting. Join us every Thursday at 6pm for our weekly run club, meeting outside the taproom, plus our monthly morning run on the first Sunday of every month at 11am.
When you arrive, don’t forget to check in using the QR code posted outside the front door. Every run you attend is tracked, helping you unlock rewards along the way — including beers, merch, and exclusive discounts.

Full Circle Balance Events
As part of Full Circle Balance, we host a growing range of in-person activation events all centred around the outdoors and usually finished off with a pint or two.Our events are all about bringing the community together, whether that’s under one roof or out in the open air. They’re also a great opportunity for us to meet people in a more relaxed and personal setting outside of the taproom.
Some of the Full Circle Balance events have included a sea dip, a hike through the Simonside Hills, beach pilates, the Craster to Seahouses walk, and dog walk socials. We’re always looking to explore new ideas and add more events to the mix.
Keep an eye on the Full Circle Balance instagram to see what’s coming up next.

#FULLCIRCLEBALANCE Instagram Challenge!
We want to get you guys involved in a fun, interactive social media campaign to promote Full Circle Balance. We’re encouraging you to snap a picture with a celebratory pint or tinny from Full Circle in hand, whether it be after (or during) a run, cold- water swim, long hike, or a round of table tennis.
Absolutely anything! It doesn’t need to be a strenuous activity, and everyone can find their comfort zone with anything they enjoy.If you're not feeling a drink, no stress, still go ahead and tag us, we'd still love to see what you're up to! Make sure you tag or collaborate with us on your post and use the hashtag #FullCircleBalance .
That’s not all, every month the team at full circle will be choosing their three favourite Full Circle Balance pictures and the winners will receive a prize from us. The crazier the better! Now that spring/summer is here, there's no better time to get involved with Full Circle Balance.
Paws and Pints Dog Social
As part of Full Circle Balance we have teamed up with @rossiswaggytails to put together a guided social dog walk which takes place every month. This epitomises what Full Circle Balance is all about for us as anyone is welcome to join (you don’t even have to bring a dog), it’s accessible for all levels of fitness and most importantly you’ll have earned the pizza and pint you have at the end!
For anyone bringing their dogs along, it’s a fantastic opportunity for them to socialise and exercise and it’ll bring some often very much required serotonin to those who don’t have a 4-legged friend in their household. As well as this, it’s the perfect opportunity to come and join our vibrant Full Circle Balance community full of friendly faces who love getting outdoors and enjoying a little beer here and there.
No need to sign up in advance, just turn up on at our meeting point outside our taproom. Keep an eye out on our Full Circle Balance Instagran and Facebook page for upcoming dates.
