Arran managing director Gerald Michaluk of the Arran Brewery said the deal would allow the company to launch into the South East and London.
He said: “We will be adding 100 cask to our cask stock and will be adding their beers to our range available in Scotland as well as introducing our Arran range to the South East of England.
“After a redesign of the Devil’s Dyke Brewery’s logo, a brewer will be assigned to re-commission the brewery and start production of its ale range as well as some new ones with an Arran twist.
“There is good demand in the area for Arran beer and we from time to time have sold beer locally on our raids south of the border.
“The Devil’s Dyke brand is well known locally and will remain associated with the Dykes End Public House, to the rear of which the Brewery is located”.
Michaluk would not be drawn on whether this would be the firm’s only acquisition, saying: “Watch this space”.
