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.

Tap at the Marine, Sidmouth. Poured a crystal clear golden straw colour with a short-lived, frothy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is malt, light cardboard yeast. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a crisp, malt, light citrus, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. Not bad for the ABV and for a lager it had a little flavour.
