Also from the Cullercoats Brewery is
The brewery draws its inspiration from the rich history of Cullercoats Lifeboats and especially the stormy events of New Year’s Day 1861, when the “Lovely Nelly” ran aground off Cullercoats Bay. The Cullercoats Lifeboat could not launch because of the rough conditions, and the story goes that Cullercoats Fisherwomen pulled the lifeboat the 2 miles to Whitley Bay where the lifeboat could be launched. The lifeboat saved all lives on the Lovely Nelly, save for the 12 year old cabin boy Thomas Thomson who sadly drowned. The bowman on the Cullercoats Lifeboat was John Chisholm whose nickname was “Jack the Devil”. The story is famously recalled in the painting of ‘The Women’ by John Charlton, which hangs in the Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle upon Tyne.
Here is a picture of the painting 'The Women'.
HMS Swiftsure was a 74-gun third rate ship of the line of the British Royal Navy. She spent most of her career serving with the British, except for a brief period when she was captured by the French during the Napoleonic Wars in the Action of 24 June 1801. She fought in several of the most famous engagements of the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, fighting for the British at the Battle of the Nile, and the French at the Battle of Trafalgar.

In yesterday's piece, John Chisholm, nicknamed 'Jack the Devil', the bowman of the Cullecoats lifeboat was mentioned. This drink remembers him.

The brewers wrote,
"Rocket Brigade IPA” draws on another chapter in the history of saving lives at sea in Cullercoats. Rocket apparatus, manoeuvred on a wooden carriage by the Volunteer Life Brigade (VLB), was used to fire lines to ships in distress, thus facilitating rescue of crew and vessels. The apparatus was stored in what is now Rocket Garage, situated on the corner of John Street, overlooking Cullerocats Bay. The brewery’s IPA pump clip, showing the rocket and a VLB member was designed by local artist Charlotte Powell, who was able to research the story at Tynemouth Volunteer Life Brigade Museum. Charlotte also designed the Jack and Nelly clips.

No "Black Sails", Rob?
Today an ale celebrating Grace Darling.
Grace Darling was one of the Victorian era’s most celebrated heroines. On 7 September 1838, at the age of 22, she risked her life to rescue the stranded survivors of the wrecked steamship Forfarshire, a feat of bravery which changed her life dramatically.
Her extraordinary act of bravery became internationally known, making front page news and even reaching Queen Victoria. She became the media celebrity of her day and was showered with honours, including the RNLI's Silver Medal for Gallantry.
Tragically, Grace died 4 years later, aged just 26. She is still remembered for her courageous actions, and the bravery she demonstrated that night continues to inspire the values we hold today. A museum was established in 1938 to commemorate her life. https://rnli.org/find-my-nearest/mus...darling-museum

I have never heard of this island before. It may be a small island in the Florida Keys or it may be a clever play on words.
You are right Dave there are a few beers down there with spurious names.
