Description
Top Rope Brewing are a Liverpool based microbrewery & taproom who love putting hops in a headlock. With a focus on bold, modern styles with a wrestling twist, we brew a little something to keep everyone happy from Ice Cream Pale Ales to big Imperial Stouts, all whilst keeping things Vegan Friendly.

In mid 2024 the brewery became a partner of Legend Whisky which allowed the brewery to avoid ceasing its activities and to continue brewing.
