Description
UnBarred was established in 2014 from the shed of our founder and Head Brewer Jordan Mower. Born of a passion to brew uncompromising and exciting beer, our original flagship IPA won the Bev Robbins Award for the Best Sussex Beer in its first year of production. We soon outgrew the shed and moved onto gypsy brewing, enabling us to grow production and hone our craft, working together with other fabulous breweries.

Since establishing our taproom and brewery in the heart of Brighton in August 2019, we have doubled our production and embraced the Brighton community that we call home. Our core range is stocked nationwide, alongside ltd editions that embody the creativity, passion and freedom that have always defined our core ethos. We love to collaborate with other breweries that share those same values.

We’re inclusive, passionate and adventurous in everything we do, from our beer conception through to our design, brewing and welcoming taproom experience. To celebrate our roots, we love to work with local artists, independent businesses and fellow-creatives to showcase the best of the vibrant culture and boundless innovation of this beautiful city. We are UnBarred.

NB - UnBarred moved its keg and can production to a trade-only site on the Garcia Trading Estate in Worthing around March 2026. Address: Unit 6a, Garcia Trading Estate, Canterbury Road, Worthing, BN13 1AL.

Brighton retains active, on-site brewing operations. The space freed up by moving mass production to Worthing allowed them to expand the taproom seating while keeping the original kit to brew experimental, small-batch, and taproom-exclusive beers right in front of visitors.

Panda at home from Grumbo, thanks Graham, 08/01/23. Light black with a tan covering that thins to a swirl. Nose is sweet malts, chocolate milkshake, light vanilla, caramel, dark malts. Taste comprises sweet chocolate, hazelnut, dark malts, light spice, chocolate biscuit, brown sugar dusting. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light twist of alcohol. It's okay but a touch on the artificial sugary sweet side but you do get the Beuno bar.
