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.

Bottle split at Travlr tasting @ Chriso, 30/09/15. Dark mahogany brown topped with a decent beige swirl. Nose is toffee, dark fruits, malt. Taste comprises chocolate, spice, green pepper, roast malt. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok spiced stout, heat is subtle enough.

Bottle consumed at Cropredy, Fairports Annual Reunion Festival 2015, Thurs 13th, Friday 14th and Sat 15th shared with Craig. Hazy yolky gold with a slim white head atop. Loz thinks the hoppiness is a little unusual, I agree but I like it, it’s fuzzy, furry and with lots of curly hops. Cornish beers are getting quite good. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4
