Fanclub Charity Auction 2014

At the end of January, Rod and The Truants will be away again pedalling for charity, and they're tackling their hottest ride yet.

Trooper beer exports pass the million mark

Robinsons Brewery today announced that over ONE MILLION pints of TROOPER have already been exported around the world.
