Description
Chapter Brewing is smashing its way through the canon of craft, creating beers inspired by the innovation and playfulness of the written word. At the brewery we dive into experimental works as well as having well-thumbed and ever-present favourites in our Library.
Distributing nationally from our base in Sutton Weaver, you’ll find Chapter beers in cask, keg and small-pack with each lending their own unique characteristics to the brew. Hosting not only incredible artwork from local artist Boneface, Chapter’s labels offer a reading suggestion in lieu of a food pairing which allows the drinker, if so inclined, to read the texts that influenced the beer.
So all that remains is the eternal question: mark your page or squeeze in one more Chapter?
