Despite its shocking state, the vision was born, and the work began on planning the brewery and developing the brand. The name Powder Monkey relates to the boys who carried the gunpowder to the guns on board ships.
Having recruited Mark, our Head Brewer to the team, Andy & Mark spent many hours planning the working side of the brewery, specifying the equipment and ensuring it was as efficient and productive as possible.
Roll forward to July 2021 and the new facility was up and running and the first beers brewed. The brewery building contains the production facility as well as a visitor centre, shop and tasting bar.

440ml can from the Mary Rose museum shop in Portsmouth. Pours clear yellow with strong carbonation and a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of flora, citrus, herbs, grass, earth & malt. Moderate body.
Dry clean light bitter finish. Enjoyable to a point but the least impressive of the PM beers I've tried by some distance.
