Description
The brewery was founded in May 2007 under the name Quercus Devon Ales in Churchstow, Devon. In 2011 new owners took over the brewery till 2016.

In September 2016 the business was purchased by a consortium led by city insurance specialist John Tiner and his wife Geraldine. They changed its name to the current one. In 2017 the brewery moved to the current location.

Salcombe Brewery Co. has stunning views towards the Salcombe Ria. The innovative new brewery is a unique concept situated above a decommissioned water reservoir, utilising the natural ambient temperature of the underground facility, making the brewery as energy efficient as possible. Together with the surrounding nature and views towards Salcombe, it’s a great place for local and visiting customers to enjoy.

[Cask at the festival at the Bull, Barkham.] An amber pour with a ring of white head; bittersweet caramel aroma; soft caramel taste with a malty body; then a drier finish with a smooth silky mouthfeel. Rather like a Marzen.

Keg at Royal Seven Stars Hotel, Totnes. Nil aroma. Light gold. The white head just sticks to the edges. Low key taste: citrus sourness. Umami undercurrent. Light bodied. Slicks. Flat carbonation. Dry finish. Understated. Or bland. Slips slips without leaving a mark.

From cask at Oddfellows, Exeter, Devon, on trip to 22 southern counties with OGJ and EE 04.01.19. Unfortunately served without sparkler. Dark copper. Small beige head. Very moderate aroma of fruit cake. Some more taste, with dark caramel, dark malt and fruit cake. Flat, even for a cask ale.

Hand-pulled cask half-pint on 13th Nov 2018 in The White Ball Inn, Tiverton Devon. Dark body, almost mahogany in colour, cream coloured head that lasted and gave some heavy lacing. Malty number, with a dark chocolate feel and a light orange twist in the taste.
