Speaking to Blog Preston, NIKO owner Niko Salipur said he’s proud to be involved in the venture.

Niko said: “Overtone is one of the best brewers in the country, so to have their first taproom in Preston is a big thing for our city.

“I already think we have the best craft beer scene in the north outside Manchester, with the likes of Chain House taproom, plus Rivington opening in PLAU this weekend.

“Judging by how much social media is buzzing, I think it will bring even more people to Preston, taking the craft beer scene to the next level.

“From the first time I contacted Overtone with the idea they have been super excited. I’m really proud and can’t wait for this ride.”

Posting on Facebook, a spokesperson for Overtone said: “It’s no secret that we’ve been looking for a taproom venture for some time.

“We’re thrilled to have a space where you can enjoy a range of Overtone beers on tap and we trust our good friends at NIKO to provide an amazing beer experience.”

The Overtone Taproom by NIKO will open on Friday 27 October.
