About
The Muirhouse brewery started on a 100 litre plant in our family garage with brewing taking place every week on a Sunday.

It was named the Muirhouse Brewery because Richard’s (The Owner) surname is muir and was brewed in his house's garage.

We brew beer with a passion to create great products full of flavour after all our name is on the pump clip. We endeavour to go up and above to give our customers a great service, great beers with guest beers alongside our own.

Lurch's Liquor Stout from Muirhouse Brewery
13 years ago
5.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
Cask at Devonshire Cat, Sheffield. It pours black with a medium tan head. The nose is earth, liquorice, wood, leather and a burnt buttered toast. The taste is mellow roast, earth, dark fruit, berry, some tanginess (possibly infected?), chalk and cocoa powder with a dry finish. Light-medium body and soft carbonation. So-so.
