Description
New River Brewery was established in July 2015 on the banks of the New River in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire. After a lot of hard work honing our brewing skills, meticulous processes and fabulous recipes, we have gained a strong reputation for brewing the kind of beers people love to drink. In fact we have become known as the brewery to go to for reliable, honest, great tasting beers that result in good things being said about them – and we can’t argue with that!

New River Brewery was born out of a desire to encourage drinkers to experience locally-brewed, fresh, modern beer. Join our growing community of fans and share in our latest news and offers.
