They started Beaufoy Grimble distillers in Scotland making Sarsons Vinegar and Booths Gin. It became British Vinegars and The Distillers Company, eventually sold to Nestle and Guinness. My dad was responsible for launching the iconic red-clear Sarsons vinegar bottle.

The entire UK brewing industry did an apprenticeship at Greene King and then inter-married. They're all related or know each other.
