Description
Urban Alchemy started brewing commercially in 2019 and was established by a group of friends with years of brewing experience between them. A bespoke three-barrel plant is used. Beers are supplied to local pubs and beer festivals but are likely to be real ale in a KeyKeg, whilst cask may occasionally be produced. All beers are suitable for vegans. Bottle-conditioned beers are available for delivery.

Brewing is currently suspended.

Forholdvis pålitelige notater fra en travel dag på The Great British Beer Festival, London 02.08.22: mørk kastanjefarge, fint skum som varer. God maltkropp bærer frem fine inntrykk med kaffe, sjokolade, karamell og mynte (a la After Eight-sjokoladen).
