About
Folklore abounds in the marketing of Skinner’s Cornish beers, which were first supped in 1997. Steve Skinner heads a successful Cornish business whose beers are seen throughout the county and nationwide too via good wholesale distribution. Countless barrels and hundreds of awards later, our brewery has grown but remains a family business rooted in the area we live and work, whether that’s doing our bit for our corner of the planet, enjoying a bit of surfing or having a go at some shanty-singing.. The brewery has a 25-barrel plant, a good beer shop and well presented visitor centre.

In early 2023 taken over by Goodh Brewing.

Bottle at home. A nice, fresh hoppy and citrussy beer that quenched the thirst and tickled the tongue. A good colour and a nice light carbonation.

Cask @ Sawyer’s Arms, Manchester. Cloudy dark amber with a creamy head. Has a light fruity character, perhaps a little understated though, however it’s easy-drinking with a berry-sweet nose and a slightly sticky texture.
