About
A hardworking northern brewery.
We’re on a mission to grow Beartown by challenging ourselves and our community to dream big. It’s that simple. However It takes decades of dedication to truly understand that progress can’t be rushed. We understand that time doesn’t guarantee anything but a journey to be shared and it’s exactly that which inspires us.
Beartown means more than a pint of beer, it’s a community of drinkers that identify with a cause to give back to their roots. A spirited belief in the power of persistence, creativity and that a pint tastes best when earned. We have a vision to spread our ethos, furthering the growing community of Beartowners and all whilst making great tasting craft beers that can be enjoyed by generations.

Cardiff Mini-break Beer#3. A changing trains in Birmingham beer on the way, the next one will be in Cardiff. Clear golden very hoppy session ale, which slips down the palate very well.
