About
Inspired by local brewing traditions and the vibrant US craft beer scene, Magic Rock Brewing is the culmination of a lifelong passion for beer. Richard Burhouse (aided by head brewer Stuart Ross) started the brewery in 2011 in an old out-building of the family business in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire.
Alongside a distinctive core range we produce an ever changing line up of idiosyncratic beers with an innovative quality driven approach. Our ‘Same but Different’ beers are packed with intense yet approachable flavours which will challenge and inspire, but above all remain balanced and drinkable.

In 2022 Lion breweries sold Magic Rock In Good Company Brewing, who intern sold it to Keystone Brewing Group in 2025, and most recently to The Great British Drinks Company in 2026.

440ml can from Asda, Eastbourne. Poured a slightly hazy golden colour with a thin white head. The aroma is toffee caramel malt, stone fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a crisp, toffee malt, mineral, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Ok but unadventurous.

Can. It's almost clear, pale golden-orange in color and with a finger-thick white head. Tropical aroma with peach, mango notes, pine cones and generic citrus, some maltyness too. It's medium bodied and smooth on the palate, with a good carbonation. Gentle bitterness. Grapefruit, orange, pine cones and tropical fruityness in the flavor. Pleasant malty flavor too. Medium length finish, mostly on the hoppy side. 241019
