It all began with a passion for great tasting beer and a home brewing kit. 3 years on, Farmageddon boasts a growing brewery and an impressive core range with limited edition cameos to keep it interesting. Locally made, hand crafted beers, right on your doorstep.

Closed in april 2023 due to economic pressure.

The name ‘Farmageddon’ came from late-night chats about what would be needed to survive the Zombie apocalypse? The answer seemed simple, brewing your own beer and raising animals for food were at the top of that list.

440 ml can, from KWM Wines & Spirits. ABV is 6.3%. Moderately gushing can. Slightly hazy golden colour, large white head. Aroma of tropical fruit nectar, hints of citrus, also a weird hint of broth, which seems to be common in beers from Northern Ireland - possibly due to poor water quality? Light bodied for its strength. Refreshing flavour, not very sweet, notes of citrus, hints of tropical fruits, a moderate grapefruity and earthy bitterness in the finish.
