Iron Maiden and independent brewers Robinsons have teamed up to create a new light ale named Light Brigade.
This golden beverage contains 4.1% ABV and will be released in aid of charity Help for Heroes. Six pence of each pint and five pence of each bottle will go towards the organisation who provide support and recovery for the Armed Forces community whose lives are affected by their service.
Later this year, Iron Maiden will be going on a UK arena tour next year with Killswitch Engage. The band will be playing a set list of fan favourite material from the 80s as well as a few cuts from their later eras. Their most recent album is their sixteenth ‘The Book of Souls’, which was released in 2015 via Parlophone (EU) and Sanctuary Copyrights/BMG (US).
The dates for the shows are as follows.
