Description
Initially opened as the Ship & Mitre Brewery in 2016. In 2017 they renamed to Flagship Beer. Run by head brewer, Tom Anderson, the beers produced always have thought and care put into them even before they are brewed.

We brew small batches, just 620 litres a time, to ensure the beer is freshest. Larger batches are brewed at Stamps Brewery in Bootle.

Brewing is currently suspended
