Yorkshire’s Black Sheep Brewery has launched a new beer in support of rugby league legend Rob Burrow. Burrow’s Blonde has been brewed in partnership with the Good Racing Co, a good causes racing club which began fundraising for Rob with a charity racehorse in his name.

It now runs the Rob Burrow Racing Club, supporting the Motor Neurone Disease Association and The Rob Burrow 7 Discretionary Trust, which was set up to support Rob and his young family after the former Leeds Rhinos player was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in December 2019.
