WHO WE ARE
Set up by Charles Lumley in 2015 (with a lot of help from friends and family!), message in a bottle was designed to bring something new and exciting to Cleethorpes. Taking inspiration from other bottle shops in bigger towns and cities, Charles wanted to create the area's only specialist beer shop. Previously there had been nowhere else in the area to buy world beers or local ales in bottles.
The shop's manager (and Charles' brother in law) Ryan is now in charge of the day to running of the shop, but Charles can usually be found "helping out" at weekends.
The shop has continued to evolve and now stocks local and craft ciders as well as premium locally produced spirits.
After several successful temporary events, we were granted a licence to allow us to host a pop up bar every weekend.
Being a proud member of the Cleethorpes community, we love every opportunity to interact with our customers so please call in or get in touch.
Due to COVID-19 the shop and bar are temporarily closed, but we are delighted to announce we have created a next day local delivery service across Grimsby and Cleethorpes.
Delivery is £5 or free on all orders over £25.
Alternatively you can collect from our shop for free.

LOCAL ALES
Lincolnshire is home to an array of independent, award-winning micro-breweries creating superb, small-batch, craft beer. We are proud to stock, sell, serve and support our talented brewers and champion local beer.
Stop By For a Taste
Unfortunately our weekend bar is closed. We hope to re-open soon.

PREMIUM SPIRITS
We proudly stock local gins Pin Gin and Deco. We also stock a range of premium gins and rums from across the world as well our very own Cleethorpes rum and gin (see below).
WORLD BEERS
Yep, we specialise in Lincolnshire ales but we also have the biggest and best selection of world beers in town! Bottles of the finest British, Belgian, German and American craft ales as well as brews from exotic islands and far away lands are always available.
CLEETHORPES RUM
Cleethorpes now has its very own rum after a collaboration between two Lincolnshire businesses.
Waddingham-based, Tip-Tap-Top have created the new tipple exclusively for message in a bottle.
The small batch, dark rum is available in striking skull shaped bottles which are individually sealed by hand.
It is infused with banana, salted caramel, molasses and a hint of citrusy orange. There are three different sizes with prices starting at £15.
