Description
Since changing our name from Topsham & Exminster Brewery in 2008, we have expanded ever more rapidly. We now have a fantastic site in Cowley Bridge Road where we have a retail shop and Tap-Room Bar. The Tap-Room is open every Thursday evening from 5pm to 11pm. Curry nights. Every last-Friday of the month the Tap room opens as normal, but we offer a curry, prepared and served by ARC Events. You don’t have to eat, just enjoy a drink, but the curries are great – takeaways available too.

Cask half-pint, gravity poured at the Old Fire House, Exeter on 11th Nov 2017. Flat and sadly in poor condition, dark with no head. Got the chocolate esters and flavours and coffee hints. Pity about it's looks and condition. Also had another half pint at the Shrewsbury Hotel on 31st May 2026.
