Nestled in Teesdale County Durham, an area of outstanding natural beauty, we brew to minimise impact but maximise experience. Surrounded by the stunning rural setting high in the North Pennines, its no wonder that once the area is discovered, it is never forgotten. Much like our beer.
Brewed in very small batches without the need for computers and automation, Dark Sky uses its surrounds to inspire something a little special in a glass. Something a little different, something worth taking time over.
