Description
We forged Firebrand in 2012 in a converted milking parlour on the untamed edge of Bodmin Moor, North Cornwall. The idea was born from our passion for beer made from all-natural ingredients, Cornish spring water, and American hops.
We brew beer that we love to drink and pride ourselves on our craft. Whether it’s a Hazy Vegan IPA or a Barrel Aged Imperial Stout, we regularly refine and tweak our recipes to brew the best beer we can.
Originally launched because the co-owner and head brewer of Penpont Brewery Joe Thompson wanted to brew a more modern style so Firebrand Brewing Co. was created.

Can: Poured a pitch black with a two finger tan head. Aroma is roasty malts some adjunct of some type. Taste is alcohol, roasted malts, liquorice, finish is kinda bland for being an impy.

Half-pint, keg, at Meat & Barrel. Shared with Finn. Spotty lacing, minimal head, next-to-clear golden body. Moderate red orange aroma. Hop fruity flavours with citrus drops. Refreshing aftertaste with fruity bitterness. Just alright. (Southsea 23.10.2019).

Half-pint, keg at the Four Horsemen Pub. Clear golden body, lacing rings, filmy layer. Rather discreet fruity taste of ripe citrus. Hints of citrus and peaches to the taste profile. Refreshing, but quite thin on the swallow. Accepted. (Bournemouth 22.10.2019).
